Baltimore's Thanksgiving Parade kicks off the holiday season with spectacular floats, gigantic balloons, marching bands, and the official arrival of Santa Claus to Baltimore on Saturday, November 22 at 11 a.m. 

The parade steps off at the intersection of Pratt and Howard streets, continues east on Pratt Street and disbands at Pratt Street and Market Place. The reviewing stand moves to a new location at Pratt and Light streets.

After the parade, children can stop by Santa's Place, coordinated by Harborplace & The Gallery, to sit on his lap, share their holiday wishes, and have their picture taken.
