The annual Thanksgiving parade begins on Manhattan’s Upper West Side and ends at Macy’s Herald Square.
The event will also feature six new character balloons: Disney’s Minnie Mouse, Extraordinary Noorah, The Elf on the Shelf, Gabby, Goku, Marshall, and Spider-Man.
“A dedicated team of artisans and production experts at Macy’s Studios works year-round to bring this experience to life,” said parade executive producer Will Coss in a statement. “This year’s 98th Macy’s Parade will create awe with unforgettable character balloons, one-of-a-kind floats and the world-class entertainment only Macy’s can deliver.”
Last year’s parade drew the most viewers in the history of the event with a total audience of 28.5 million viewers across NBC, Peacock and the encore telecast. It was the most-watched entertainment program of 2023 across all of broadcast and cable, according to The Hollywood Reporter.
This year’s parade will air on Thursday, Nov. 28, at 8:30 a.m. in all time zones on NBC and streams on Peacock. An encore will be broadcast at 2 p.m. Full details on the parade can be found here.
