AMERICA'S NEW YEAR'S DAY CELEBRATION
The 136th Rose Parade and 110th Rose Bowl Game will be held on Wednesday, January 1, 2025. The events will occur the day after New Year's Day in keeping with the Tournament's “Never on Sunday” tradition kept since 1893. For millions of people around the world, the Rose Parade is an iconic New Year’s Day tradition. The Rose Parade travels 5 ½ miles down Colorado Blvd. and features four types of entries: floral-decorated floats entered by a participating corporation, non-profit organization or municipality, equestrian units, bands, and Tournament entries. Rose Parade participants have long histories with the Tournament of Roses and keep the traditions alive.
After the parade, explore Hollywood during a City Tour and enjoy lunch on your own at the farmer’s market.
The day after the Parade we will head to Victory Park in Pasadena, where the Rose Bowl Parade floats are on display. View the floats up close and see the incredible amount of detail that goes in to creating these masterpieces!
