Doing my homework i came across a few TIPS that the Tournament of Roses SUGGEST
Visiting Tips
As you enter the float viewing venue,
As you enter the float viewing venue,
1) pick up a brochure to help you understand the Post Parade layout. The brochure is also available at all Park-N-Ride locations.
2) Wear comfortable walking shoes as there are no trams and seating is limited. Viewing all the floats will require walking a distance of approximately 2.5 miles and will take at least two hours.
Keep in mind the venue is often crowded and you will be walking and viewing at a leisurely pace.
The best time to visit Post Parade is during the early public viewing hours on January 2. At peak viewing times, you may wait in line to purchase tickets, ride the Park-N-Ride shuttle, or enter Post Parade.
3) Skateboards, roller skates, bicycles, tricycles, Segways and wagons are not permitted. Please note that use of a stroller is difficult due to terrain.
4) No animals are permitted within the venue (Service animals are the only exception).
5) Remember to stay hydrated, particularly if the day is hot. Water is available free-of-charge at three locations within the park.
6) There are a limited number of food vendors at the venue. However you are welcome to bring small quantities of food and non-alcoholic drinks into the venue. (no coolers, please).
7) Before you begin viewing the floats, decide where you and your party will meet in case you are inadvertently separated and cannot communicate via cell phone. One choice is to meet near the Lost and Found tent at the intersection of Sierra Madre and Washington.
8) There are two ATMs at the venue, sponsored by the Pasadena Federal Credit Union. ATMs are located near the West (Red) Gate and at the corner of Washington and Sierra Madre Boulevards.
9) All strollers, backpacks, purses, bags, etc. are subject to search prior to entry into the Post Parade venue.
10) We work with the Mount Wilson Vista Girl Scouts to recycle. Please deposit your recyclable items in the marked bins.
11) Make sure to stay together! To avoid getting separated from your party designate a meeting place, and be sure to make sure you have everyone's cell phone numbers
