Michigan Premier Events Spreads Warmth at Silver Bells in the City

LANSING, MI — November 21, 2025 — Michigan Premier Events warmed hearts and hands during this year’s Silver Bells in the City celebration, distributing nearly 1,000 cups of free hot cocoa and hot apple cider to community members in Downtown Lansing. The beverages, generously provided by Phillips Orchards, brought comfort and joy to families and visitors braving the chilly evening.

For the second year in a row, Michigan Premier Events continued its tradition of offering complimentary warm drinks as part of its commitment to enhancing one of Lansing’s most treasured holiday festivities. The event took place on Friday, November 21, from 5:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m., drawing steady crowds throughout the night.

In addition to serving cocoa and cider, Michigan Premier Events once again hosted its Heartfelt Fridays donation drive. Attendees were invited to support local organizations by donating warm clothing, personal care items, and non-perishable food items. This year’s collection will benefit the Greater Lansing Food Bank, The Fledge, and Punks with Lunch Lansing—helping ensure that essential resources reach individuals and families throughout the Greater Lansing area.

“Michigan Premier Events is all about community,” said Ashlee Willis, Founder & CEO of Michigan Premier Events. “We were thrilled to share nearly 1,000 cups of warmth with our neighbors and to continue giving back through Heartfelt Fridays. It’s our way of celebrating the season with kindness, gratitude, grace and connection.”

Michigan Premier Events extends its sincere thanks to Phillips Orchards, Silver Bells in the City team and everyone who stopped by to enjoy a warm drink or donate to the community. Michigan Premier Events looks forward to continuing this meaningful tradition for years to come.
