Rose Parade Opens New Year With Sunshine and Floats in California
The 109th Rose Parade in Pasadena drew about one million people on New Year’s Day as flower bedecked floats, marching bands, and horses wowed spectators. Highlights included a Macarena dancing caterpillar and Sunkist Growers winning the Extraordinaire Trophy. Nearby Philadelphia hosted the 98th Mummers Parade amid cold weather and sequined costumes. In Lewes Delaware, Polar Bear Club members braved 38 degree Atlantic waves to ring in 2026.
