While it may not be New York's Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade, it is just as impressive. Actually, Chicago's Thanksgiving Parade last year feature more giant balloons than the infamous New York parade. And that's not all, floats and marching bands take to the streets as well all free to public. The parade goes up on State Street, from Congress Street north to Randolph Street.

Admission: Free
