The parade begins at 8:30 a.m. at West 77th Street and Central Park West and ends at 12 p.m. at the Macy’s Herald Square flagship store on 34th Street.

The parade will mostly run through Central Park West and then down Sixth Avenue. There will be approximately 2½ miles of designated public viewing areas along the route. Arrive as early as 6am to secure a nice spot.

Central Park West: Great viewing areas are available along Central Park West from 61st to 75th Streets. However, there is no public access for viewing between 59th and 60th Streets.
