Floats
The Pasadena Rose Parade features some of the most fascinating and stunning floats you can ever see.
Initially, it featured flower-decorated horse-drawn carriages. As time went on, the floats became more advanced and impressive, and now most of them are built by professional float building companies.
What’s amazing is that it takes nearly a year to construct a float.
It is mandatory for the parade that all surfaces of the float and its frameworks must be covered in natural materials like plants, flowers, seeds, bark, vegetables, etc., making it all the more impressive.
Equestrian Units
The horses have been a defining feature of the parade since its beginning. Watching these highly trained creatures trot in unison is a magnificent experience.
Before the parade starts, an Equestfest is held at the LA Equestrian Center to exhibit the amazing performances by the highly talented riding teams.
Best Marching Bands
Undoubtedly, the most exciting part of the parade are the highly trained and highly coordinated marching bands and is one of the main attractions in the parade.
To participate, top marching bands are invited from all over the world. Moreover, it is joined by the nation’s top high school marching bands.
These impressive bands usually accompany the float that represents their floats. Seeing them beat away at their drums and planting coordinated feet is sure to get anyone’s adrenaline pumping.
Theme
Every year, the newly elected President of the Tournament of Rose selects a theme for the upcoming parade and festivities. Generally, most of the floats revolve around this theme.
It creates a beautiful vibe of the parade that is reflected through pretty much everything that is planned for it.
The theme for the year 2022 is “Dream. Believe. Achieve”. It celebrates education and its importance in achieving one’s dreams.
