Experience the Magic of Teamwork at the 137th Tournament of Roses Parade!
Join Escapees RV Club for a behind-the-scenes adventure at one of America's most beloved New Year traditions—the 137th Tournament of Roses Parade!!
This year’s theme, announced by Tournament of Roses President Mark Leavens, is “The Magic of Teamwork”—a celebration of unity, collaboration, and the joy of achieving more together than we ever could alone.
Spanning 5½ miles along Colorado Boulevard, the Rose Parade dazzles with breathtaking floral floats, world-class marching bands, equestrian teams, and inspiring nonprofit groups. But the true magic begins long before parade day!
As an Escapees participant, you’ll get a rare, insider’s look at how these award-winning floats come to life—and even have the chance to roll up your sleeves and help decorate them! This is your opportunity to be part of the tradition, creativity, and camaraderie that make the Tournament of Roses a cherished New Year’s celebration.
Don’t miss this chance to create memories, make new friends, and witness the power of teamwork in action!
Escapees RV Club has a wonderful time lined up for you, so expect a fun-filled week!
The Rose Parade is a unique experience and sharing it with fellow Escapees makes it even more special. Meet amazing friends and take away new lifetime memories at the most-watched parade in the world!
Don't Forget your Camera!
