Hob Nobble Gobble 2024

The Parade Co. hosted its annual Hob Nobble Gobble presented by Ford Motor Co. on Nov. 22 at Ford Field in downtown Detroit. The black-tie event is one of the primary fundraisers for the producers of America’s Thanksgiving Parade and the Ford Fireworks and was sold out with some 2,400 guests in attendance. It featured a buffet table that stretched across the stadium’s 50-yard line, carnival rides, games, and a performance by Atlanta rapper T.I. Other performances included the Detroit Academy of Arts and Sciences Choir, the Parade of Stars featuring dancing elves, the cover band Your Generation, and Santa Claus. // Photographs by Christine MJ Hathaway
