Dolly Parton is among the country artists bringing holiday cheer to the 94th annual Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade. The country legend will appear on Cracker Barrel's Home Sweet Home float to perform "A Holly Jolly Christmas." Due to the ongoing COVID-19 (coronavirus) pandemic, this year's event is television-only.

"I've watched the @macys Thanksgiving Day Parade every year since I was a kid. This year I get to play it with @noahcyrus. Y'all tune in Thanksgiving Day," Allen wrote on Instagram.
