Sorry guys, but leave your drones at home.
As close to 700,000 visitors are expected to converge on the city for the Rose Parade and Rose Bowl it is imperative to know that No Drones policy will be in effect at both venues.
This time of the year, Pasadena becomes the focal point for the nation, and much of the world. A whirlwind of preparations and other special activities are already underway that lead up to the main events. City crews, Tournament and Rose Bowl staffs and hundreds of volunteers, plus float builders and many other affiliated organizations and businesses are busy working on a highly efficient schedule.
How we can help?
Pedestrians and motorists are urged to use extra caution during this busy time of year as work crews put the finishing touches on the 5.5-mile parade route, the parade formation and post-parade areas.
Watch for extra barricades; changes in signal lights, temporary parking restrictions and extra work vehicles in the streets.
