    SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO EXCITED CAN’T WAIT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!



    get out there early! 19 months ago

    I went when I was 12, It was amazing :) My parents took forever to get ready that morning so we got there and it was really crowded. (I was in times square across the street from MTV studios) The trick is to get there at least 3 hours before it starts so you can get a spot where you can see things besides the balloons over people’s heads.

    NYC for Thanksgiving!



    Get there EARLY!!! 23 months ago

    No kidding, right? A friend and I got a hotel right off 5th so that we could be a close walk to the parade route. We were told that if we got there around seven, then we’d have front row spots. That is wrong!

    I think if we got there around six, we would have gotten spots right on the route. As it was, we actually got halfway decent spots near Columbus Circle. It was a lot of fun, just be prepared to deal with the crowd.

    The weather was great this year and it was definitely worth seeing but I wouldn’t do it again. It’s very difficult to get a good view, the people who get good views get to the street no later than 6:30 am, and some people sleep there over night. It’s nice to see how big the balloons really are, but if you want a good view of the parade, stay home and watch it on TV.

    It was very exciting... 2 years ago

    but very cold….

    wear layers and cover your head.



    Wouldn't do it more than once... 2 years ago

    It’s fun to do anything once but I have to say you get a much better view on TV.

    Memories. 3 years ago

    It was great. My Mom surprised me… she had booked a hotel room overlooking the parade like two years in advance (it was really expensive, too.) We opened the windows and watched the parade… Fantasia from American Idol waved at us. I can’t wait until we one day have enough money to do it again. We also went to the Today show and I was on tv.



    I watch it on TVevery year...gotta see it up close, just once 3 years ago

    I remember when Underdog was my favorite balloon to look for, then it was Grover. I still love Grover( and I’m gonna be 41 in a couple weeks…...I know…...grow up already).Here is a site to view some videos of the balloons…they have my Underdog

    I've been wanting to do forever 3 years ago

    I remember first seeing the parade on TV when I was very small I’ve always wanted to go. I’m not sure about this year but maybe next.
