The Rose Parade's equestrians are another link with the Parade's past. Each Parade features over 300 horses and riders, highlighting a wide variety of breeds. Graceful Andalusians, high-stepping Peruvian Pasos, exotic Bashkir Curlies and crowd-pleasing Miniature Horses are favorites of Rose Parade audiences.

Equestrians are selected well in advance to give the chosen groups time to raise the money needed for the trip to Pasadena. For more information, please visit our "Applications" page.
