Pennsbury High School recently announced the Pennsbury Marching Band, The Long Orange Line, will perform in the 129th Tournament of Roses Parade in Pasadena, California on Monday, Jan. 1 starting at 8 a.m. PST.

Known as America’s New Year Celebration, the annual Rose Parade features spectacular floral floats that are completely covered with natural materials, marching bands and equestrian units. Approximately 1 million spectators line the 5 ½ mile parade route, which tens of millions watch on television in more than 200 countries and territories. The Rose Parade will be broadcast on ABC, the Hallmark Channel, HGTV, KTLA (Tribune), NBC, RFD-TV and Univision.

Pennsbury is one of 16 bands selected to march in this parade. Bands are selected based on musicianship, marching ability, uniqueness and entertainment value. Geographic diversity is also considered, and bands from across the world are welcomed. This year’s international bands hail from Japan, Australia, Panama and Canada.

In addition to the parade, the Pennsbury Marching Band will participate in the Tournament of Roses Bandfest at Pasadena City College where they will perform this year’s field show “At the End of the Rainbow,” march in the Disneyland Parade and participate in an instrumental soundtrack session at the Disney Performing Arts Workshop.

The Pennsbury Concert Jazz Band will perform in a private concert at the Catalina Jazz Club with Tom Scott, a renowned composer, arranger, producer, musical director and saxophonist with three Grammys and 14 Grammy nominations.
