Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade Set for Nov. 28

The 2024 Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade, celebrating its 98th year, will air live on November 28 from 8:30 a.m. to noon ET, featuring a star-studded lineup that includes Alison Brie, Idina Menzel, T-Pain, and members of the WNBA champion New York Liberty. The parade will showcase 17 character balloons, 22 floats, and performances from Broadway productions including 'Death Becomes Her' and the Radio City Rockettes, alongside musical acts like The Temptations and Charli D’Amelio. The event will be hosted by Savannah Guthrie, Hoda Kotb, and Al Roker, with a Spanish-language simulcast on Telemundo. This year’s parade promises to be the largest yet, with over 5,000 volunteers contributing to the festivities. The broadcast, which attracted nearly 30 million viewers last year, will also stream on Peacock and feature an encore presentation. Organizers emphasize the parade's role in ushering in the holiday season for millions across the nation.
