America's favorite holiday tradition once again kicked off the season of joy as the 89th Annual MACY'S THANKSGIVING DAY PARADE returned to march down the streets of New York.
As millions celebrated the holiday with family and friends, more than 8,000 participants - including clowns, balloon handlers and marching bands - travelled through Manhattan to the sound of the iconic catchphrase "Let's Have a Parade". With more than 3.5 million spectators and over 50 million television viewers nationwide, the MACY'S THANKSGIVINGDAY PARADE is the nation's most celebrated and anticipated holiday treat. Since its origin in 1924, the Macy's Parade has marked the official start of the holiday season, introducing a cherished march of magic that has dazzled generations of fans. For the 89th edition, the famed spectacle's line-up will feature 17 giant character balloons; 24 novelty/ornament balloons, balloonicles, and trycaloons; 27 floats; 1,100 cheerleaders and dancers; more than 1,000 clowns; 12 marching bands; a host of celebrity performers; and of course, the one-and-only Santa Claus.Photo Credit: Genevieve Rafter Keddy
