What are you doing between Christmas and New Year’s Eve?
Christmas and Hanukkah might be over, but that doesn’t mean you have to skip the holiday fun until New Year’s Eve! I’ve got three special happenings in Los Angeles all taking place this weekend!
Pasadena Tournament of Roses SIP & SAVOR
Celebrate the end of the year with an entire weekend of eating, entertainment, and fun for the whole family at the Pasadena Tournament of Roses® SIP & SAVOR Event
Taking place at Pasadena’s Arroyo Seco on Friday, December 28th through the 30th,it’s a chance to see your favorite Rose Parade floats before they debut on the 1st.
Must have bites include The Crack Shack, Lucille’s Smokehouse Bar-B-Que; Pez Cantina; and more!
On the beverage side there will be over eighteen vintners, three local craft breweries, and a very special Firestone Walker Brewing Company Sports Bar Area!
Lastly if you’re there to be entertained there will be over 20 musical acts spread over the weekend!
Buy your tickets right here to avoid long lines. General Admission is $15 but unless you’re just there for the floats, then I recommend adding a tasting ticket package! The Sip & Savor Silver Package is $35 and includes 15 tasting tickets–a discount of $10!
