Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade Balloon Inflation


 The night before the Thanksgiving day parade, everyone gather to watch the famous  giant helium balloons get inflated.

This has been a tradition since 1927.  Balloons are blown up and bought to life around American Museum of Natural History.  These Hugh balloons takes up to 2 full blocks.  Nets and sandbag are used to keep the balloons from escaping.

This starts at 4 pm on Thanksgiving eve on 77th and 81 st. Public viewing is from 3-8 pm.
