Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade 2019 start time, lineup on NBC
So when does the Parade actually start this year? The official broadcast of it is of course on NBC, and you can see it starting at 9:00 a.m. no matter what time zone you are in. (Obviously, it will be pre-taped in some markets.) The parade is out of New York City and typically, the first hour of it features a number of Broadway performers and more of a standstill environment. The final two hours, meanwhile, are a legitimate chance to see some floats — which could be grounded this year to some extent by the weather. There are also a number of famous faces who will be taking part.
According to NBC, the roster this time around includes “Natasha Bedingfield, Black Eyed Peas, Chicago, Ciara, Josh Dela Cruz, Celine Dion, Jimmy Fallon and The Roots, Debbie Gibson, former NASA astronauts Kay Hire & Janet Kavandi, Chris Janson, Idina Menzel, Lea Michele, Miss America 2019 Nia Franklin, NHL legends Dominic Moore and Eddie Olczyk, the cast & Muppets of Sesame Street, NCT 127, Ozuna, Billy Porter, Kelly Rowland, That Girl Lay Lay, TLC, Tenille Townes and Chris Young; with an extra special appearance by the one-and-only Santa Claus.”
Following the Parade, be sure to also prepare for the annual broadcast of the National Dog Show, which is always a fun tradition in its own right. In between these two events and football, there’s quite a bit of great stuff happening on TV come Turkey Day! If nothing else, this is a great opportunity to distract your family from fighting with each other.
Of course, be sure to come back in the morning — if there are some notable headlines from the parade, we’ll have them for you here.
