More than 45 businesses will be showcasing products and services on Monday, November 13 from 5 to 9 p.m. at the annual Downtown Rochester Holiday Expo at the Royal Park Hotel.

The event will also allow for a sneak peak preview of this year's Downtown Rochester Festival of the Trees. Admission to the expo is free and includes light refreshments and door prize drawings throughout the evening.

"Downtown Rochester is known throughout the metro Detroit area as a must-see destination for the holidays," said Rochester Deputy City Manager Nik Banda. "The Holiday Expo is a great opportunity to meet our local businesses owners and see what they will have in store for the holiday season."

The event is sponsored by Renewal by Anderson, Rochester Regional Chamber of Commerce, Rochester Salvage & Supply, the Stewart Real Estate Team Partners, and the Rochester Downtown Development Authority.
