How to Watch Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade: Live Stream, Parade Time, Performers, Floats and More Info

Why go out in the cold on Thanksgiving when you could spend the morning cozied up on the couch? There's no need to brace the frigid temperatures—or insanely large crowds—on the holiday, especially now that you can watch the Macy's Thanksgiving Parade from the comfort of home.

The 92nd annual parade will kick off on Thursday morning at 9 a.m., but celebrators won't necessarily need to make the journey to Central Park West or 6th Avenue to see the big turkey float make its way down to Macy's flagship storefront on 34th street.

Viewers all over the country can tune into the Thanksgiving Day Parade on NBC. Today show anchors Savannah Guthrie, Hoda Kotb and Al Roker are expected to host the live broadcast. NBC will also air special holiday performances by John Legend, Martina McBride and Rita Ora.

Those without access to television can still catch the parade coverage via live stream on NBC's website and app—although they will need a cable provider login to access the stream.

For the third year in a row, Macy's and NBC have teamed up with the cell provider to give fans access to the entire parade with the Verizon 360 Livestream on YouTube. This year, Terry Crews and Lilly Singh will host the 360 Livestream show.

CBS will also air live coverage of the event. The network's Thanksgiving Day Parade coverage, hosted by Entertainment Tonight's Kevin Frazier and Keltie Knight, will begin on Thursday at 9 a.m. as well. The CBS event—accessible for streaming on CBS's website and app with a cable provider login—will include taped performances of Broadway shows like Tina: The Tina Turner Musical, Hadestown, Beetlejuice and Ain't Too Proud—The Life and Times of the Temptations in addition to an exclusive performance by Miranda Lambert. Viewers with access to Hulu Live TV, YouTube TV and FuboTV will also be able to stream CBS' parade coverage on those platforms.

Along with getting a glimpse of the most notable Thanksgiving floats, viewers will be delighted with the appearances of a few newbies during the parade too. Green Eggs and Ham characters Guy-Am-I and Sam-I-Am will make their parade debut along with Yayoki Kusama's new float, Love Flies Up to the Sky, Dragon Ball Super: Broly's Goku and the elves from The Christmas Chronicles.

The fan-favorite Snoopy float is slated to receive an astronaut-themed makeover, while SpongeBob SquarePants and Gary will appear with upgrades celebrating the Nickelodeon characters' 20th birthday. The Smokey Bear float, which was last seen at the Macy's Thanksgiving Parade in 1993, will also make its grand return in honor of the character's 75th birthday.
