Nov. 28 (UPI) -- The casts of the Broadway musicals Death Becomes Her and The Outsiders braved the cold and rain Thursday to perform at the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade. Temperatures were expected to be in the low- to mid-40s throughout the morning.
Today hosts Savannah Guthrie, Hoda Kotb and Al Roker hosted the NBC broadcast, which included dozens of floats and giant balloons.
Thousands of spectators were seen bundled up in winter gear and rain ponchos.
Highlights of the event, which is also streaming on Peacock, included performances by high school and college marching bands, as well as music and theater stars like Idina Mezel, Cynthia Erivo, Jennifer Hudson, Kylie Minogue, Billy Porter, Loud Luxury, T-Pain, Ariana Madix, Jimmy Fallon & The Roots, Dan + Shay, Bishop Briggs, Kylie Cantrall, The Temptations and Charli D'Amelio.
The Radio City Rockettes also danced during the holiday tradition.
The parade ended at noon when Santa Claus arrives on his sleigh, officially kicking off the Christmas season.
