Bundle up and head out to the Woodward Avenue in Detroit to join over one million parade-goers to celebrate Thanksgiving with America's Thanksgiving Parade.
This annual tradition has grown over the past eight decades to develop into one of the nation's top Thanksgiving parades, and offers plenty of fun throughout the week to appeal to all ages. Enormous balloon characters highlight the parade, including Uncle Sam, Clownie, the Nutcracker, and more.
Other special Thanksgiving week events include The Parade Studio, a festival area open after America's Thanksgiving Parade that includes family entertainment like live entertainment, children's activities, rides, games, and more. The area will also feature displays of the floats of this year's parade, and will operate on the two weekends following Thanksgiving as well! Detroit is the ideal location to celebrate Thanksgiving as one of the most exciting weeks on the city's annual calendar!
