If you love the holidays and all the festive events that come with them, get ready for a packed weekend! The weekend before Thanksgiving usually serves as the official kick-off to holiday festivities, and this weekend there’s something happening all over Metro Detroit.

The annual event to mark the lighting of the Christmas tree in Downtown Detroit returns this week.

Celebrate the holidays at Palio on Sunday.
