And while the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade in New York City might be the most famous, Chicagoans have their own timely tradition.
There will also be festive floats as well as performances from the Korean Performing Arts Institute of Chicago, Lajkonik Song and Dance Ensemble and Ballet Folklorico Sones Mexicanos, among a number of others. “The Chicago Thanksgiving Parade is more than just a celebration; it’s an opportunity to share the incredible stories that make our city unique," Chicago Thanksgiving Parade Foundation Executive Director Dan Mulka said in a news release."... This event is a testament to the spirit and unity of our community, and we’re honored to continue this tradition.”
While visitors are most certainly encouraged, there's an option for those who'd prefer to watch the festivities from the comfort of their own home. The parade will air live on Pluto TV this year. The parade runs from 8 a.m. to 11 a.m. and travels along State Street from Ida B. Wells Drive to Randolph Street.Feeling out of the loop? We'll catch you up on the Chicago news you need to know.
