The first Thanksgiving took place in 1621 at Plymouth, in present-day Massachusetts, and was a celebration of the harvest between the Pilgrims and the Native Americans. The Pilgrims, who had settled at Plymouth, invited the Wampanoag tribe, including Chief Massasoit, to join them in a feast to give thanks for a successful harvest. The celebration lasted for three days and included various activities such as feasting, hunting, sports, and games. It was a significant event that symbolized unity and cooperation between the Pilgrims and the Native Americans.
