One of the world's great special events, the Portland Rose Festival is celebrating 2024 with the theme, Dream Forward. In both 2007 and 2011 the Rose Festival
was named the Best Festival in the World by the International Festivals & Events Association.
The Portland Rose Festival Grand Floral Parade is the second largest all-floral parade in North America and the single-largest spectator event in Oregon. The spectacle featuring floral floats, marching bands, equestrians and specialty units will travel the revised route established in 2022, starting from Memorial Coliseum and ending at Lloyd Center. View the Grand Floral Parade Route Map. A week prior to the Grand Floral Parade, the streets of downtown Portland glow with the lights of the Starlight Parade. The illuminated parade is one of the Portland Rose Festival's most popular events, drawing more than 250,000 spectators to view the sparkling floats, gleaming bands and glowing marching groups. This parade will also travel a new route established in 2022, traveling from Naito Parkway through downtown and ending near Providence Park. View the Starlight Parade Route Map. A featured highlight in both the Starlight Parade and Grand Floral Parade is the One More Time Around Again Marching Band presented by Standard TV & Appliance. This all-age band boasts nearly 500 members from the region and across the country. Both the Grand Floral Parade and Starlight Parade will be televised live in Portland and throughout the region on KPTV FOX 12 Oregon (watch live online at www.kptv.com). FOX 12 will also be broadcasting a third parade during Rose Festival, the Fred Meyer Junior Parade on Wednesday, June 4. 2024 ResultsGRAND FLORAL PARADE (Saturday, June 8, 2024) BAND SWEEPSTAKES AWARD Oregon City High School, Oregon City, OR GOLD STANDARD Ballard High School, Seattle, WA Battle Ground High School, Battle Ground, WA Cleveland High School, Portland, OR Columbia River High School, Vancouver, WA Garfield High School, Los Angeles, CA Glencoe High School, Hillsboro, OR Pipestone High School, Pipestone, MN Roosevelt High School, Seattle, WA Shu-Te High School, Kaohsiung, Taiwan Tualatin High School, Tualatin, OR SILVER STANDARD Hillsboro High School, Hillsboro, OR Hudson Bay High School, Vancouver, WA Tillamook High School, Tillamook, OR STARLIGHT PARADE (Saturday, June 1, 2024) BAND SWEEPSTAKES AWARD Shorecrest High School, Shoreline, WA GOLD STANDARD Century High School, Hillsboro, OR David Douglas High School, Portland, OR Heritage High School, Vancouver, WA Hockinson High School, Brush Prairie, WA Interlake High School, Bellevue, WA Mountain View High School, Vancouver, WA Skyview High School, Vancouver, WA Westview High School, Portland, OR SILVER STANDARD Hermiston High School, Hermiston, OR Hudson's Bay High School, Vancouver, WA Liberty High School, Hillsboro, OR Lincoln High School, Portland, OR Scappoose High School, Scappoose, OR Southridge High School, Beaverton, OR Tigard High School, Tigard, OR 2024 Participating Bands
