This year, my family will continue the Thanksgiving tradition that started many years ago. We always rent a cabin (three generations of us), cook Thanksgiving dinner and watch the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade. We do this every year and everyone really loves it. Family time is what the holidays are all about.
This November, America’s favorite holiday tradition will mark a milestone anniversary, once again kicking-off the holidays with its signature brand of magical entertainment. On Thursday, November 24th, the 90th Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade® will march down the streets of New York City as millions celebrate with family and friends. How exciting is that?
The unparalleled spectacle is set to enthrall more than 3.5 million spectators lining the streets of Manhattan and more than 50 million viewers on television, with a host of giant character balloons, dazzling floats, the nation’s best marching bands and performance groups, celebrities, and the official entrance of the one-and-only Santa Claus. Now you can follow along with the fun on two new, Macy's apps.
Macy’s is launching a Macy’s Time Traveler App and a set of emojis to help you celebrate one of the nations greatest traditions! The Macy’s Time Traveler app will let users interact with the parade in the comfort of their own homes, or in their local Macy’s stores. They can find and capture balloons in their local Macy’s stores through virtual reality and make a customized parade of their own, as well as learn about the history of the Macy’s Parade and take a vintage selfie.
And for those in New York, they’ll be able to view what the parade looked like in previous decades while in Herald Square. This fully rendered, 3D virtual reality environment will allow users to see what the buildings of Herald Square looked like in the 30s, 60s, or 80s.
On top of that, Macy’s has provided a fun way to communicate with your friends and family whether they’re near or far. Their new emojis are a fun way to continue your already festive conversations.
Excited for some turkey? There’s an emoji for that.
