In 2004, the first-ever SpongeBob SquarePants Balloon made its inaugural appearance in the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade. Based on the most-watched animated kids' show on TV, this year's newest SpongeBob balloon will stand at 44-feet tall, 41-feet long and 34-feet wide as it struts down New York's most famous parade route. The SpongeBob SquarePants balloon will debut a new look for the 87th Annual Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade on Thursday, November 28, donning a holiday-themed ensemble for this year's celebration. This will be SpongeBob's ninth consecutive year appearing as a balloon in the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade.

Amy Kule, Executive Producer of the holiday spectacle, said in a press release, "It's not very often that the term 'square' and 'balloon' are used together, but for nearly a decade the SpongeBob SquarePants balloon has been one of the many highlights of the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade."

Other cartoon characters to look for are Pikachu, Buzz Lightyear, Sonic the Hedgehog, Papa Smurf, Toothless, Finn and Jake, Chippey and Snoopy with Woodstock. - November 1, 2013
