Luther Burbank Rose Parade and Festival

To our Participants, Sponsors, Vendors and Community: Firstly, thank you all for your continued support of the Luther Burbank Rose Parade. We all cherish this event and look forward to it every year. We could not put on this event without your dedication to making it special. Unfortunately, after much consideration and heavy hearts, the Board has elected to cancel the 2020 Luther Burbank Rose Parade & Festival. The presence of COVID-19 in our community has moved us to this d...ecision. Many factors went in to this choice, the greatest being the health and safety of all of us. With so much uncertainty at this moment, it seems impossible to focus on anything but getting our community through and past this global issue. We very much intend to have the parade in 2021. We hope that you will be a part of it and help make it wonderful event. Once past this challenge, it will be more important and enjoyable to celebrate our community and one another. The Board and I thank you very much for your understanding to this cancellation. Continue to be safe and we look forward to seeing you in 2021. Peter Briceno, Board President

It's hard to tell whether this photo was taken in 2019 or 1929! Check out this 1928 American La France "Truck 2" which was used to protect Santa Rosa for many years. It was last used to battle the Hanley fire in 1964 as it approached Santa Rosa. #SantaRosa #SRFD Photo by Cindy Roddan

The beautiful traditional costumes of Ballet Folklorico Brook Hill Elementary were a bright spot on a rainy Parade Day! Head to our website for more photos from the Parade! #LutherBurbankRoseParade Photo by Cindy Roddan
