Winter Snow Fun Holiday Parade & Annual Tree Lighting

Celebrate the magic of the holiday season at the fifth annual ‘Winter Snow Fun’ Holiday Parade in Marquette’s Downtown District. Bundle up with friends and family as illuminated floats, tinsel-strewn trucks and colorful carolers transform Third Street into a magical scene from the North Pole. The parade will begin at the corner of North Third Street and Fair Avenue and end at the Marquette Commons.

The United States Postal Service will be collecting letters to Santa along the parade route. Letters should include a return address.
