MARQUETTE -- The annual Downtown Marquette Holiday Parade and Tree Lighting will be held from 6-8 p.m. on Thursday, Dec. 10 down Third Street and winding around to the Marquette Commons.
"Experience the magic of the holiday season as children of all ages take in the wonder of the annual Downtown Marquette Winter Snow Fun Holiday Parade," reads the event page. "Bundle up with friends and family as illuminated floats, tinsel-strewn trucks and colorful carolers transform Third Street into an enchanted scene from the North Pole."
The Marquette Post Office will also be collecting letters during the holiday parade while it goes down Third Street, so bring the little one and bring their letter and make sure Santa receives their Christmas wishes.
The parade will head down Third Street toward the Marquette Commons where the tree lighting ceremony will begin at 7 p.m.
"Come say hi to Santa, grab some (hot) cocoa and welcome the holiday season with the Christmas spirit," the event page reads.
The event will also feature the Yule Market, live music, and more.
