The event included the lighting of the official state Christmas tree, an electric light parade, Disney roadshow concert and fireworks over the capitol building.
This year's Christmas tree was donated by a couple from the Upper Peninsula and measured some 65 feet tall.
Last year, the event drew an estimated 150,000 people and this year the city anticipated even higher attendance, said Joni Rainbolt, one of the event coordinators with Motion Marketing & Media.
Rainbolt said that more than $100,000 is needed annually to produce the event, which is made possible by hundreds of sponsors.
