Thanksgiving Day Parade

Welcome Santa Claus back to the city of Detroit during the 88th annual Thanksgiving Parade presented by Art Van Furniture. On Thanksgiving morning, bundle up and head downtown to take part in this beloved tradition. Olympic Gold Medalists Meryl Davis and Charlie White lead the parade, and celebrities such as Big Sean, Vanilla Ice, Hilary Farr, Olivia Millerschin, KT Maviglia join the bands and floats as they make their way down Woodward. Familiar faces such as the Penguins of Madagascar, Love Dollhouse, Paws, Roary and - of course- Santa will also be part of the festivities. The Thanksgiving Parade is free to the public, but a limited amount of grandstand tickets are available for purchase starting at $40.
