MARCHING THROUGH MANHATTAN WITH MACY’S

Behind the magic of one of America’s most beloved traditions is a staggering amount of behind-the-scenes build—and Chesapeake is proud to play a role. Our materials have been used in the fabrication of floats, scenery, and support structures for the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade, where every element must be engineered for spectacle, mobility, and safety in equal measure.

From vibrant finishes to ultra-lightweight cores, our wood products help fabricators meet the creative and logistical demands of the parade’s iconic moving stages. We understand the importance of precision under pressure, delivering materials that perform reliably through variable weather, complex rigging, and cross-town transport. When the entire country is watching, we help bring the wonder to life—quietly and capably.

YES, THAT PARADE. THE FLOATS, THE DISPLAYS, THE STRUCTURES — CHESAPEAKE MATERIALS HELPED BRING IT ALL TO LIFE ON AMERICA’S MOST ICONIC HOLIDAY STAGE.
