Philadelphia Thanksgiving Parade 2025. This is the oldest parade of its kind in the country (take that, macy’s). The entire parade route is free and open to the public, except for a limited number of grandstand seats in the telecast area that are for sponsors and vips only.
The thanksgiving day parade begins in center city and marches to the ben franklin parkway and art museum. A guide for the 98th annual macy’s thanksgiving day parade.
