Jimmy Fallon and The Roots kicked off the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade this morning, and since then, more musical figures and entities have made their mark on the event.
There was an emphasis on Broadway shows this year and the cast of Hamilton participated in the festivities with a performance. Lin-Manuel Miranda tweeted about the presence of Hamilton and other Broadway shows (like Ain’t Too Proud, Jagged Little Pill, and Mean Girls), writing, “It’s Hamilton’s 1st time performing at the Parade. Grateful to be among the shows performing, including @AintTooProud, @jaggedmusical, @MeanGirlsBway. Live theater is waiting on the other side of all this. The ghost lights are still on. Grateful for YOU. Have a happy safe day.”

This is INCREDIBLE. They started in front of the theater, and then on “there’s nothing like summer in the city” they switched to 34th street in front of Macy’s. GENIUS. Also, the boards that say “history is happening”. AHHHH! #Hamilton #MacysThanksgivingParade pic.twitter.com/ZowGA1aPpi

Given the restrictions the pandemic imposes, the parade was different this year that it has been in recent years. There wasn’t a crowd there and everything took place within a one-block radius. A lot of the parade was also pre-taped over the course of three days, and the number of participants was cut by about 88 percent this year, so there were far fewer people than the usual 8,000 or so.
Watch some clips from the parade above.
