Real-Time Updates on Parade Floats, Star Performances, and Inflatable Balloons

In this year’s Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade, a variety of celebrities and iconic figures took to the streets of New York City to entertain and delight millions of spectators. Australian pop sensation Kylie Minogue delivered an electrifying performance in Herald Square, while Rachel Platten sang her heart out on the Pasta Knight float. TikTok star Charli D’Amelio danced alongside the Tom Turkey float, and Motown legends The Temptations brought soul to the parade on the Wondership float.

One of the highlights of the parade was Idina Menzel’s performance on the Bronx Zoo’s float, celebrating the zoo’s 125th anniversary. The cast of the Broadway musical “Death Becomes Her” also entertained the crowd with a spirited performance of “If You Want Perfection.” And despite some bad weather, including rain and low temperatures, the iconic Macy’s balloons took flight and dazzled the audience.

This year’s parade was also significant as it marked Hoda Kotb’s final Thanksgiving Day Parade as co-host of the Today show, as she announced that she was stepping away from anchoring duties after 17 years to focus on her kids. Overall, the 2024 Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade was a star-studded event filled with music, dance, and celebration, showcasing the best of New York City’s holiday spirit.
