The annual Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade in New York City celebrated its 100th anniversary with a colorful procession of 17 helium-filled character balloons, including Spider-Man and a Minion from “Despicable Me,” as well as 22 floats and 11 marching bands from across the country. Despite the rainy weather and chilly temperatures, spectators lined the 2.5-mile route through central Manhattan to catch a glimpse of Santa Claus, a Statue of Liberty float, and a giant, golden Thanksgiving turkey in a top hat. The parade also featured 700 clowns, 10 performing groups, and celebrity guests, making it a cherished tradition for families and tourists alike. Children pressed up against windows of nearby buildings to witness the magic of the parade unfold. The event, which began in 1924, continues to bring joy and excitement to millions of viewers around the world, marking the start of the holiday season with festive cheer and delightful entertainment.
