Marquette celebrates holiday season

MARQUETTE, Mich. (WZMQ) – Downtown Marquette lit up Friday evening with a parade, yule market, and tree lighting.

The parade included first responders, sports teams, clubs, and even Santa Claus who stuck around for a while after and helped count down for the tree lighting.

“And Santa’s here, he made it here,” said DDA Business Outreach and Promotions Director Mike Bradford. “He’s sitting with the kids hearing what they want for Christmas, and with live music behind me and with vendors at this new yule market. This whole event happened and I could not be more proud.”

The Yule Market included around 20 vendors selling a variety of holiday items for decorating and celebrating.

“You can get some Christmas classics like Christmas trees, wreathes, there’s a lot of backed goods here,” said Market Manager Brian Shier. “As well as some gift items and art that you could get for presents this year. There’s a lot of great local talent here making great products and we wanted to make sure that there are chances for them to sell those products.”

The evening was filled from top to bottom with holiday cheer.

“December is cold, it’s dark,” said Bradford. “This is one of those great events that’s free and accessible for everyone that gets them out of the house, gets them outside, gets them amongst their community, and it’s just a beautiful thing to see tonight.”

The Yule Market continues on Saturday from 3 p.m. to 9 p.m.

City of Marquette Art week celebrates 10th and final year

Imagine never having to pay property taxes again. The proposal would eliminate property taxes statewide, allowing homeowners and businesses to own their land without any ongoing government fees. But with property taxes funding everything from schools to public safety to roads, the big question is—where will that money come from? The plan calls for a bigger slice of state sales tax to be redirected to local governments. To help cover the gap, the petition also shifts 10% of state income, marijuana, alcohol, and tobacco tax revenue to cities and counties. sot Opponents OF THE PLAN worry it could jeopardize local funding. The petition is now gathering signatures for a spot on the 2026 ballot.
