2012 Tournament of Roses

NATIONAL TV - A NEW YEAR - WHAT A SITE!

After all the grand spectacle of the 2012 Rose Parade moves to its climax, a colorful curtain call comes into view for the first time in parade history.


First a huge TOR “HAPPY NEW YEAR AMERICA” themed float, designed to be the centerpiece of this parade bookend moves into the Telecast zone. Its presence gives our presenting corporation Honda significant television exposure.


An ocean of dancers will glide down the boulevard alongside the breathtakingly majestic float, each carrying a colorful red, purple, or yellow bouquet.


The opening gates and feather flags ceremoniously close behind the finale float and majestically follow the procession up the avenue. A symbolic gesture that we have come to the end of our celebration but are ready to kick off the New Year!

The five fans in the stands seen previously in the opening cannot hold back! They have now joined in the Rose procession and have become the featured singers on the float. They perform a remixed
version of the custom 2012 theme song and share their gratitude and best wishes to the live audience for joining the festivity.

A perfect mixture of people, performance, and pageantry, saluting what was the best Rose Parade to date!

Swept up by the final words, the camera will pan the gates from one end to the other revealing that the bouquets are actually gorgeous women built into the filigree of the flower bedecked gates. One by one their faces blossom with smiles as the camera sails by.


JUST IMAGINE…
