The parade will be broadcast live Thanksgiving morning on Channel 11, KHOU-TV, at 9 a.m., November 22nd in Houston with repeat coverage at 10 a.m. and noon.

The parade will feature up to six "uniquely styled, large floats featuring live entertainment, bringing excitement and energy to this year's event," six giant helium-filled balloons and thousands of musicians in marching bands, drill teams, dancers, cheerleaders and clowns.

U.S. News Travel listed Houston's H-E-B as one of America's best Thanksgiving Day parades

"Houston's 63rd annual holiday parade, the H-E-B Holiday parade, entertains thousands of revelers in the Lone Star State with its ornate floats and beloved cartoon characters," Liz Weiss wrote. "If you would rather be present on Turkey Day, you'll want to get downtown by 8:30 a.m. to grab a spot before the festivities kick off at 9 a.m. The best viewing areas are along Congress & San Jacinto Street; from there, enjoy six magnificent floats, six humongous helium balloons, and thousands of marching band participants, musicians, cheerleaders, and clowns. Those of you planning to tune in at home will find the parade broadcasted on KHOU-TV in Houston and WFAA-TV in Dallas."
