Curbside Camping (FREE)

Curbside viewing is also available on a first-come, first-served basis! Pasadena city ordinance allows the occupancy of curbside space along the parade route beginning at noon on the day before the parade. All persons and property, such as blankets, chairs and personal items, must remain on the curb until 11 PM. At that time, spectators may move out to the blue “Honor Line” but not past it. For more tips and rules about curbside viewing, visit the Pasadena Convention and Visitors Bureau website and review the Rose Parade Spectator Guide.
