Participants are provided coordinated transfers between key locations, ensuring structured movement between hotels, events, and optional tours.

Focus on Group Travel

The 2026 packages emphasize group organization rather than individual travel. The itineraries are suitable for clubs, schools, associations, and other organized groups interested in experiencing the Tournament of Roses Parade as part of a planned travel program.

Regional Attractions and Experiences

In addition to parade events, the itineraries include exposure to well-known Southern California and Nevada landmarks. The Grand Tour of Los Angeles, included in the main program, covers areas such as Hollywood and Santa Monica.
