The Loop boomed with music with the holiday cheer helping remedy chattering teeth during the chilly, windy parade.

LOOP — Smiles and festive attire were plentiful along State Street as thousands lined up to watch the 90th Chicago Thanksgiving Parade Thursday morning. The annual celebration brought music, worldwide cultures, giant balloons, dancing and more as over 100 groups made their way through the Loop. Even Santa and Mrs. Claus made an appearance.

Beginning at 8 a.m., nearly 100 people will participate in live performances, ride on festive floats, and much more along State Street.
