The Macy's Day Parade begins at 9:00 AM EST and lasts three hours.

If you want to watch the parade in real time on Thanksgiving morning go to CBS, not NBC, because CBS has unauthorized coverage to broadcast the parade live. Your local TV listings will show "The Thanksgiving Day Parade on CBS-LIVE" according to your time zone.

So, if you live in, say, Mountain Time Zone (2 hr time difference) and you don't want to watch NBC "delayed broadcast" at 9am (all time zones) plan to get up early and tune into CBS to enjoy The Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade. Happy Thanksgiving!
