Description
Floatfest: A Rose Parade Showcase
Following the Rose Parade, walk within feet of the floral and animated masterpieces parked along Sierra Madre and Washington Boulevards in Pasadena. Come rain or shine, take a closer look at the design and workmanship that went into each float entry and learn more about the float process from Tournament volunteers on hand. Comfortable walking shoes and early arrival are suggested for this exhibit, spanning over 2 miles of city streets with a moderate incline. No pets or bikes allowed.
For security purposes, all bags will be inspected at the gates. To expedite entry, clear bags no larger than 12x6x12 inches are highly recommended.
