Make the holiday tradition even more fun with a Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade Scavenger Hunt for 2024! I created this scavenger hunt to be enjoyed while watching from home or live in person!
Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade Scavenger Hunt
The 98th annual Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade fills the streets of New York City on Thursday, November 28th at 8:30 A.M. I’ve watched the parade every Thanksgiving morning for as long as I can remember. Even now the TV is tuned to it while I’m cooking for Thanksgiving.
The floats and balloons and marching bands and holiday songs are so fun to watch. Not to mention the grand finale of Santa Claus himself! Yes, he’s in my Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade Scavenger Hunt, too!
New Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade Balloons
This year the parade will feature 22 balloons, including 6 new ones I listed below. I’ve included several of them in the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade Scavenger Hunt so you’ll want to keep your eyes out for them!
- Disney’s Minnie Mouse

In addition to the balloons, Macy’s Parade will feature 34 floats, 7 Balloonicles, 28 clown crews, 11 marching bands, 11 performance groups, and 28 performers. That’s a whole lot of entertainment!
