In a festive display of community spirit, the City of Quincy is set to usher in the holiday season with its annual Hancock-Adams Common Tree Lighting ceremony. Scheduled for Friday, November 29th, 2024, at 5 PM, this event promises to blend festive traditions with family-friendly fun activities for the whole family to enjoy.

Kicking off the celebrations are two mesmerizing fire shows at 5:00 PM and 5:45 PM, sure to warm up the crowd. The entertainment continues with a musical performance by National Award Winning Recording Artist Michelle Brooks-Thompson and her band, slated for 6:00 PM to 6:20 PM, promising to fill the air with melodious holiday tunes.
