"Two things that made massive cultural splashes this year - Labubu and "KPop Demon Hunters" - will fill the sky and streets of New York when the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade kicks off this year. Conan Gray and Lainey Wilson will bring the tunes. The Nov. 27 parade begins rain or shine on Manhattan's Upper West Side and ends at Macy's Herald Square flagship store on 34th Street, which serves as a stage and backdrop for performances."
"It starts at 8:30 a.m. Eastern and airs at that time in all time zones. It will be on NBC, available with an antenna or through cable and satellite providers. For cord cutters, the parade is being simulcast on Peacock and an encore telecast begins at 2 p.m. EST/PST. A Spanish language simulcast will also be on Telemundo. Last year, more than 31 million people tuned in on NBC and Peacock, up 10% from the previous year and marking the biggest audience ever for the parade."
