129th Rose Parade on January 1, 2018...."the world paid its attention on Pasadena,
California, USA - home of the Rose Parade and Rose Bowl Game. It's a
celebration more than a century old – a festival of flowers, music and
sports unequaled anywhere else in the world. It's America's New Year
Celebration, a greeting to the world on the first day of the year, and a
salute to the community spirit and love of pageantry that have thrived
in Pasadena for more than 100 years.
The parade features floral floats, spirited marching bands and high-stepping
equestrian units along the 5 1/2 mile route down Colorado Boulevard. It's the magic of New Year’s Day in an unrivaled
celebration, exclusive to the streets of Pasadena!
An event as large as the Tournament of Roses requires about 80,000 hours of combined manpower each year. That manpower is supplied by 935 members of the non-profit Tournament of Roses Association, a volunteer organization dedicated to presenting an internationally-recognized New Year’s celebration. Each volunteer is assigned to one of 31 committees, with responsibilities ranging from selecting parade participants to directing visitors on New Year's Day, to hosting the press headquarters for media coverage of the Rose Bowl Game, to giving presentations about the Tournament to community groups."
