What city has the oldest Thanksgiving Day parade in the US?

And the answer is ...

b) Philadelphia

Philly has New York beat, at least when it comes to Thanksgiving Parades; their festivities began four years earlier than NYC's iconic celebration. Originally run by the famous Gimbel's department store to attract holiday customers, it was the model for the Macy's parade, with floats, bands, and Santa Claus arriving at the end.

POGO Events wishes you a very happy Thanksgiving!
