The Macy's Day Thanksgiving Parade is as synonymous with Turkey Day as mashed potatoes and football. This year the parade turns 91 and the 2017 lineup will feature 17 giant character balloon; 28 legacy balloons, balloonicles, balloonheads and trycaloons; 26 floats; 1,100 cheerleaders and dancers; more than 1,000 clowns; 12 marching bands; and 6 performance groups.
Four new balloons will enter the parade this year: Olaf from Disney's Frozen, Dr. Seuss' The Grinch, Jett from Super Wings and PAW Patrol. The parade will also pay tribute to the classic holiday movie Miracle on 34th Street with a Harold the baseball player balloon, which has been recreated for this year's Parade and painted in hues of black, white and grey to look exactly as it did on-screen during a memorable scene in the black-and-white 1947 film.
