PASADENA, Calif. (Sept. 29, 2025) – The Pasadena Tournament of Roses® is thrilled to announce the seven members of the 2026 Rose Court presented by Citizens Business Bank.
The anticipated reveal was attended by nearly 200 people on the south lawn of Tournament House, including friends and family of the 28 finalists.
Volunteer Members of the Tournament of Roses’ Queen & Court Committee made their selections based on several criteria including academic achievement, community and school involvement, public speaking ability and youth leadership.
We are excited to continue the treasured legacy of the Rose Court, whose members benefit by connecting with their communities, giving back in meaningful ways and blooming with self-confidence from valuable experiences they will carry with them for a lifetime. The Tournament of Roses has a long-standing tradition of celebrating educational excellence and continues the legacy by providing each Rose Court member with a $7,500 academic scholarship!
The Rose Queen® and Rose Court represent cherished traditions within the history of the Pasadena Tournament of Roses. This legacy continues with the Announcement and Coronation of the 107th Rose Queen and the presentation of the 2026 Rose Court, to be held on Tuesday, October 28, 2025, on the front lawn of Tournament House.
The 2026 Rose Court will ride on a float down Colorado Blvd. in the 137th Rose Parade® presented by Honda and attend the College Football Playoff Quarterfinal at the Rose Bowl Game® presented by Prudential, both on Thursday, January 1, 2026.
