Organise & Book your Thanksgiving

About Thanksgiving

Thanksgiving is a federal holiday in the United States of America, celebrated on the fourth Thursday of November, which does back to the time when Europeans travelled over to start new lives in America. In 1621 a group who became known as the 'Pilgrims', invited local Native Americans to join them in a feast after the locals had taught them how to grow crops successfully.

Thanksgiving is a holiday celebrated in America every year on the fourth Thursday in November, and should not be confused with Canadian Thanksgiving, which is held on the second Monday in October, which celebrates the harvest and other commemorations.

Food is a big part of Thanksgiving, and if you are planning on celebrating Thanksgiving outside of the home, many restaurants and hotels will offer seasonal menus, and if you are considering hiring a chef or external caterer look for traditional Thanksgiving cuisine, or perhaps you are looking for something unique? A buffet is a great option if you are having a big party with many guests and remember to order for vegetarians and vegans.

Thanksgiving is not just one day, and many people enjoy getting together before the big day to learn a new skill for the occasion. Craft lessons are available to create decorations, or your group could attend a Thanksgiving cookery class and discover the best way to cook that feast! Football or "American Football" as it is called outside of the USA is also a popular event during Thanksgiving, so perhaps you could book an area of a bar or inn and enjoy as a group.

Parades are a big part of Thanksgiving especially in locations such as New York, and private tour guides can be booked to get the most out of the occasion. As Americans have settled in other Countries around the world and Thanksgiving is now becoming popular in major world cities such as London.
