New Year's celebration. This FREE, family festival takes place at the Pasadena Convention Center celebrating the iconic Rose Parade and Rose Bowl Game and this year will host the kickoff of the nationwide 70th birthday celebration of the United States Air Force with over 20,000 SQ FT of exhibits, simulators and full-size jets on display!

For foodies, stroll over to the Culinary Cues Stage and see Celebrity Chefs, including Chef Jamie Gwen, and renowned Mixologists as they entertain and enlighten us on the ways to make entertaining and every day special. And if you are lucky perhaps you'll be asked to join them on stage to sous chef or sample!
