Macy's Holiday Parade / Blue Man Group Update!
Sorry for the delayed update. On January 1st, 2007 I went to the resort and brought back 80+ Pictures of Macy's/Balloonopolis. I also snapped a few photos of the Blue Man Group construction.

So we'll start off with Blue Man Group. The pathway has been in full swing going from CityWalk and to the new stage. Now the photo above was taken on January 1st. I've recently heard that concrete has already been poured on the path.
Minor work has been done outside the building, the only noticeable thing is the pathway and a huge dumpster in the old Nickelodeon Queue line.
Im sure huge progress is done inside the building, with only 4 months until open. We probably won't see any huge differences to the outside of the building until April. Make sure to get your tickets for Blue Man Group, opening June 8th, 2007! Tickets can be purchased online here. Or at the box office the day you plan to see the show.

Macy's Holiday Parade made an awesome return again this year. Christmas decorations filled the park, and as the day started to end the parade would begin! The parade consisted of colorful floats, confetti that shot off the building, marching bands, stilt-walkers, street performers, and more!
The Macy's Parade took place every night at 5:00PM from December 8th, 2006 until January 1st, 2007. Just like in past years, the parade ends with Santa Clause lighting the enormous christmas tree in the New York area of the park. Make sure to stop by in December 2007 to see the parade in person!

In between Jimmy Neutron's Nicktoon Blast and Twister...Ride It Out, is Balloonopolis. An outdoor/indoor interactive museum of floats from years past and even floats from the REAL Macy's Parade in New York City.
New this year is the indoor museum (pictured above) that had videos, a photo op, miniture models, and more.
