If the Herald Square floats are a Thanksgiving tradition in your household, you may want to know how to watch the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade online for free to not miss a moment of the almost-100-year-old holiday extravaganza.
The Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade started in 1924 as a march with Macy’s employees to Macy’s Herald Square, the brand’s flagship store on 34th Street in New York City. The parade saw the employees dressed in vibrant costumes, alongside floats, professional bands and live animals from the Central Park Zoo. Since that first parade, which saw an audience of more than 250,000 people, the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade has become an annual event. As of 2021, it’s tied for the second-oldest Thanksgiving Parade in the United States, alongside America’s Thanksgiving Parade in Detroit Michigan. (The oldest thanksgiving parade is Philadelphia’s Thanksgiving Day Parade, which started in 1920.)
The parade—which runs from 9 a.m. to 12 p.m. on Thanksgiving and ends outside of Macy’s Herald Square—has been televised on NBC since 1953. While the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade has grown to include dozens of balloons and floats, Macy’s department store employees still have the option to march in the parade like the very first event in 1924. Since it started, watching the parade has also become a Thanksgiving morning tradition in thousands of households across the United States.
