The Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade is traditionally one of the biggest events of the year in New York City, and while the streets won’t be packed with people on Thursday amid the ongoing pandemic, the floats will go on.
An altered, made-for-TV edition of the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade will still be staged, and there will still be gigantic balloons to marvel at, and there will be musical performances by Bebe Rexha and Dolly Parton. To keep things as safe and contained as possible, the parade route will be significantly shorter, and there will reportedly be 88 percent fewer participants involved in the 2020 parade.
The 2020 Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade will begin at 9:00 a.m. ET on NBC and YouTube.
