NEW YORK (AP) — The giant balloons may be flying at the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade, but the stars will be on street. Organizers revealed Thursday that actor-singer Jennifer Hudson, dance music icon Kylie Minogue and Broadway and “Pose” star Billy Porter will all perform, an upping of the star wattage over previous years.

Replace theology with corporate-sponsored floats, and that tradition continues with the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade. Watch in awe as giant branded balloons ease us into the holiday (and shopping) season.

The Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade is a beloved holiday tradition with a history as rich and colorful as the balloons floating down the streets of New York City.
