Thanksgiving Day Parade

Thanksgiving Day Parade

Every year thousands of people gather to watch the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade, both in New York and at home in front of their TV's. Since 1927, the giant character balloons are slowly blown up and brought to life in the streets around the American Museum of Natural History. The enormous balloons take up two full city blocks. 2010 marks the 84th Anniversary of the Annual Event and can be watched on NBC.
