Since its debut in 1890, the Tournament of Roses Parade has evolved into a grand New Year's Day tradition. Guests on a trip that includes Rose Bowl Parade tickets receive reserved, prime grandstand seating along the parade route. Highlights of the parade, now viewed by more than a million spectators annually, include marching bands from around the world and spectacular floral floats. You might have the chance to inspect floats up close at the post-parade viewing area.
