Every participant, regardless of age, will be asked at check-in to show a vaccination card or a negative PCR test from within the last 72 hours. This may mean that you will have to be tested on Christmas Eve. This may mean you have to be tested more than once during decoration week.

BRINGING THE COMMUNITY TOGETHER
A UNIQUE SOURCE OF PRIDE FOR ALL OF TORRANCE
|
Each year, local businesses, government, non-profits, schools, and residents gather together and work as one cohesive team to bring to life an international showcase for the City of Torrance, our entry into the Tournament of Roses Parade. With volunteers from 13 years to 90 plus years of age, it is truly an all-community activity!
|
Nothing can compare with the thrill of seeing our hometown represented alongside worldwide brands and our fellow local cities in front of a worldwide audience numbering in the millions. As one of the few all-volunteer decorated floats in the parade, Torrance has created an award-winning legacy and tradition enjoyed here, and around the globe!
