BUILD
From March until October, we build the framework of the float. That includes welding, character modeling, and painting. We usually work on Thursdays and Sundays at our float barn. We’d love to have you join us to share your skills and enthusiasm. We also can teach you skills if you’re a novice.

DECORATION (we call it deco)
Once the float is built, that’s when we begin to “deco”. The process starts with seeds and dry products painstakingly glued onto the float. The last few days before the parade are when the live flowers are attached.

DESIGN
Just days after the parade it’s time to start thinking about next year’s float. This is when you can really flex your creativity! The incoming president of the Pasadena Tournament of Roses® will announce the parade theme. You have about 3 weeks to submit your best ideas. Anyone can design a parade float!
