Kylie Minogue brought a ray of sunshine to the rainy 2024 Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade.
On Thursday morning (Nov. 28), the Aussie pop icon lit up the 98th annual New York City event with a vibrant performance of a three-song medley featuring “Can’t Get You Out of My Head,” “Slow” and “Padam Padam.” Watch a fan-captured clip of the performance on X (formerly Twitter).
Dressed in a sleek black and red zip-up outfit and surrounded by dancers in similar attire, Minogue delivered her high-energy set in front of Macy’s iconic Herald Square flagship store. The performance was part of the annual tradition, broadcast live on NBC and simulstreamed on Peacock.

“Macy’s, what just happened? OK, that was fun, that was fun singing and dancing in the rain,” Minogue laughed on her Instagram Story after the performance. “Thanks for having me. I’m going to go dry off.”
This marked Minogue’s second appearance at the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade; she previously performed in 2010, when she sang “Get Outta My Way” from her Aphrodite album.
The pop legend is currently promoting her latest album, Tension II, ahead of a major global tour in 2025.
In addition to Minogue, the parade featured nearly two dozen iconic balloons, including Snoopy, Bluey, Minnie Mouse, Marshall from Paw Patrol, Ronald McDonald, Pikachu, and newcomers Gabby, Goku, and Spider-Man.
Other performers included Jennifer Hudson, T-Pain, Chloë Bailey, Idina Menzel, Dan + Shay, Billy Porter, and Wicked star Cynthia Erivo, among many others.
The 2024 Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade also showcased 34 floats, 11 marching bands, seven “balloonicles” and 28 clown crews, filling the streets with holiday cheer as the event wrapped up at noon ET.
