Add to that a lineup of marching bands, performers, and the iconic arrival of Santa Claus, and you’ve got the ultimate holiday tradition to kick off your festivities.
The parade begins at 8:30 a.m. ET, starting at West 77th Street & Central Park West and making its way down to the famous Macy’s Herald Square on 34th Street, wrapping up at noon ET.

Their lively commentary and love for the event make watching from home almost as good as being there in person.
