Not only will this pay homage to the television show that help make Princess Cruises a household name, the float will represent the newest ship in the fleet, the Regal Princess, as it travels through some of the world’s most intriguing destinations.
As Jan Swartz, president of Princess Cruises says, “Since the theme of this year’s Rose Parade is ‘Inspiring Stories,’ we can think of no more perfect opportunity to launch our 50th anniversary year celebrations. For the last five decades of our guests sailing with us to amazing places, they’ve returned with inspiring memories that have lasted a lifetime, and we want to celebrate this on the very first day of 2015.”

The now famous Rose Parade is part of “America’s New Year Celebration®” and includes numerous floral themed floats, energetic marching bands and high-stepping equestrian units all enjoyed in perfect California weather. Keeping in the spirit of the event, the Princess Cruises float will be covered by more than 24,000 flowers and natural materials!
