We are just weeks away from the United States Thanksgiving holiday, and with it comes the traditional Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade. This year, Disney fans can look forward to a new Disney Cruise Line float and a new Minnie Mouse balloon joining the annual parade.

The new Minnie Mouse balloon will measure over 60 feet and join Mickey Mouse, Pluto, Donald Duck, and Goofy.

All the other balloons were added in 1934-35 except for Goofy, who debuted in 1992. Finally, Minnie is being added to the lineup.

Will Coss, executive producer of Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade, said,

“It has been a Macy’s Studios dream for quite some time, and the folks here on my team who’ve worked on the design, actually bringing that character to life as a balloon in the sky, couldn’t be more excited about it.”
