The Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade in New York City is a staple come holiday time, and whether you brave the cold in the Bit Apple and watch live or you're watching at home, it's a spectacle of epic holiday proportions — and this year's parade was no exception.
Many of your favorite stars performed during this year's Thanksgiving Day Parade, including pop duo Jack & Jack, who performed their Jonas Blue collab, "Rise," on a float alongside the iconic Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles.
On Instagram, Jack Gilinsky said of the experience, "Had a very unique view of the Macy's day parade today. So grateful for everyone who helped us get to this point. Happy Thanksgiving. I hope everyone had a great day & spent it with people they love."
In case you were wondering what it's really like to perform during the Thanksgiving Day Parade, Jack & Jack gave fans a special behind-the-scenes look as they took over iHeartRadio's Instagram. From rehearsals in Herald Square the night before, to listening to Christmas music on the ride to the parade the day of, to divulging what they are thankful for this year and more, the guys — who are releasing their debut full-length studio album A Good Friend Is Nice in January — shared their day from start to finish.
Jack G was so excited, he couldn't resist busting out this little dance move...
Finally, it was float time ... and time to meet TMNT! Turtle Power.
