Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade To Feature Carrie Underwood, Nelly, Kelly Rowland & More

Carrie Underwood leads the list of musical performers for this year’s Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade.

Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade returns to the streets of New York City after a virtual format forced by the pandemic last year.

On November 25 at 9 A.M., the 95th march of the world-famous Parade of magic will bring the nation together in celebration featuring Macy’s signature mix of giant character helium balloons, floats, marching bands, performance groups, whimsical clowns, music stars and the one-and-only Santa Claus.

Viewers nationwide can catch all the action via the special broadcasts on NBC and Telemundo, from 9 A.M. to 12:00 P.M. Fans can also stream the broadcast on Peacock.

The “Today” show’s Savannah Guthrie, Hoda Kotb and Al Roker will host the three-hour telecast for NBC and Peacock. There will also be a Spanish language simulcast on Telemundo, featuring a special appearance by Miss Universe Andrea Meza.

The holiday television special will feature a special performance from music superstar Carrie Underwood from her album, My Gift (Special Edition).

Country music star Mickey Guyton, singer-songwriter Kelly Rowland, Jon Batiste, Jimmy Allen, Jordan Fisher, Kim Petras, Rob Thomas, country music singer Chris Lane, Andy Grammer, and rapper Nelly are the other prominent musicians set to perform at the Parade.

“Featuring a mix of musical genres from Pop and R & B to Country, Classic Rock and K-Pop, the Parade will be the ultimate television party destination this November,” Macy’s said in a press release.

The cast of Peacock’s Girls5eva (Sara Bareilles, Renée Elise Goldsberry, Paula Pell, Busy Philipps), Miss America 2020 Camille Schrier and the cast and Muppets of Sesame Street also are among the star attractions this year.
