The 50th annual Governor’s Carolighting will be held 7 p.m. Dec. 1 at the Statehouse grounds as performers sing and entertain prior to the lighting of the state’s Christmas tree.

This year the Carolighting will coincide with First Thursday on Main, creating an entire evening of holiday spirit in the heart of the state’s capital city.
