One family sightseeing in Campus Martius said they came from South Dakota just to have Thanksgiving at Ford Field. 

Another draw for many is the annual America's Thanksgiving Parade. The event has been nominated as one of the best holiday parades in the country and has been recognized as the second most cherished Thanksgiving tradition of 2023.
