PASADENA, Calif. (Nov. 15, 2018) – A new end-
of-year celebration debuts with the Pasadena 
Tournament of Roses SIP & SAVOR. On the event 
menu is an impressive array of offerings for all ages 
from many of Southern California’s favorite eateries 
and culinary brands, along with wines and craft brews 
from throughout the Golden State, plus an exciting 
line-up of entertainment and up-close viewing of 
Rose Parade® float decorating.

 The event takes over the Rosemont Pavilion/Jackie 
Robinson Memorial Field near the Rose Bowl Stadium 
in Pasadena from December 28-30 (Hours: 11:00 a.m. 
to 8:00 p.m.). Various ticket prices and packages are 
available, ranging from general admission of $15 to a 
deluxe VIP package of $150, and can be purchased in-
person at the event or online at sipandsavorpasadena.
com.

As part of the Pasadena Tournament of Roses SIP & 
SAVOR experience, guests can visit the Rosemont 
Pavilion, a workshop of color, imagination, and 
ingenuity. Inside guests will see hundreds of skilled 
volunteers painstakingly hand-applying millions 
of florals to incredibly designed Rose Parade floats. 
With wide-eyed wonder, guests can personally 
witness the parade floats slowly taking shape. 
“Our entire team is immensely proud to partner 
with the Tournament of Roses to take the Rose Parade 
experience to a whole new level,” states Craig Bugajski, 
CEO of Artistic Entertainment Services (AES) “As the 
producers of SIP & SAVOR, it’s a terrific opportunity 
for us to take an iconic event like the Rose Parade and 
build upon the success of this historic brand with this 
new and exciting event.”

 One of the main attractions of the event is the 
Sports Bar hosted by Firestone-Walker Brewing 
Company from Paso Robles, CA. Here adult sports 
fans won’t miss any action via six large screen TV 
monitors, while they enjoy a great line-up of finely 
crafted beers from the Firestone-Walker Brewery.

 The Pasadena Tournament of Roses SIP & SAVOR 
is also a destination for guests seeking great music 
and entertainment. The event boasts a great line-
up of entertainment options for the whole family. 
The main stage will play host to a variety of bands 
ranging from classic 80s, hip-swinging rockabilly, 
top hits of today, plus daytime performances by 
the GRAMMY® Award-winning, Mariachi Divas. 
“We’re very enthusiastic about this new way of 
extending the fun, excitement, and anticipation of 
the Rose Parade for locals and out-of-town guests 
alike,” states David Eads, Executive Director and 
CEO of the Pasadena Tournament of Roses. “Guests 
will get the best of both worlds as they get an up-
close and intimate look at our beautiful Rose Parade 
floats and then enjoy the great food, family fun, and 
entertainment of our new event offering.”
