Photo Coverage: The 85th Annual Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade!

America's favorite holiday tradition, Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade® returned to dazzle and enchant millions nationwide yesterday.

The 85th Anniversary Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade took to the streets of New York City with a cornucopia of whimsical treats for the whole family. From new giant character helium balloons, including Paul Frank's iconic monkey "Julius" and "Sonic the Hedgehog," to out-of-this world floats including "ZHU-NIVERSE!" and "Frozen Fall Fun," the magic began at the sound of "Let's Have A Parade!"

The Parade featured 15 giant character balloons; 44 novelty/ornament balloons, balloonicles and balloonheads; 27 floats; 1,600 cheerleaders, dancers and performance group members; 800 clowns; 11 marching bands; a host of celebrity performers, and the one-and-only Santa Claus.

Check out photos from the festivities below!
