Pasadena Doo Dah Parade
Old Pasadena, Pasadena, CA
The Rose Parade's irreverent twin, born in 1978, featuring the Doo Dah Queen, briefcase drill teams and whatever else shows up. Occasional by design, returning to Old Pasadena in 2026 for its 46th running after a wildfire-year pause.
That was 1 of the hidden places.
