MARQUETTE, MI--   The City of Marquette is pumping up the holiday spirit Friday. 

The Downtown Development Authority is holding its Winter Snow Fun Holiday Parade and 43rd annual Tree Lighting Ceremony.

The parade begins at 6 p.m. on Fair Avenue and will make its way down Third Street. It’ll feature festive floats, vehicles and marching units, and the U.S. Postal Service will collect letters to Santa along the route. Letters should include a return address.

The parade ends at the Marquette Commons, where the tree lighting and photos with Santa will be held.
