Join CenterCity.Events for the 6abc Dunkin' Thanksgiving Day Parade — the oldest Thanksgiving parade in the country, now in its 107th year! We meet at 20th Street & John F. Kennedy Boulevard, Philadelphia, PA 19103 at 8:30 AM sharp for the pre-show, then watch the parade step off at 9:00 AM and roll down Benjamin Franklin Parkway to the Philadelphia Museum of Art steps, wrapping up around noon.
Expect giant balloons, colorful floats, marching bands, dancers, and a visit from Santa himself to kick off the holiday season. Great viewing spots line the Parkway — Logan Circle, LOVE Park, and Eakins Oval are all close to our meeting point. It is free, outdoors, and runs rain or shine, so dress warm and arrive early for a good curb spot!
Reviews from past years call it "a beloved Philly tradition the whole family loves," "the best way to start Thanksgiving morning," and praise the "amazing balloons, music and energy all along the Parkway." Come start Thanksgiving with friends!
