In one example embodiment, a method (500) by a wireless device (110A-D) for performing parallel multicast measurements includes identifying, by the wireless device (110A-D), a parallel multicast measurement capability of the wireless device (110A-D). A configuration for performing parallel multicast measurements of a plurality of Multimedia Broadcast Multicast Service (MBMS) transmissions is received from a network node (115A-C). Based on the configuration received from the network node (115A-C), a procedure for performing the parallel multicast measurements of the plurality of MBMS transmissions may be adapted by the wireless device (110A-D). The plurality of parallel multicast measurements of the plurality of MBMS transmissions are then performed in accordance with the adapted procedure.
