Visit Pasadena

Pasadena has long been a place for those to escape and enjoy beautiful resort weather mixed with a splash of adventure – all set to the backdrop of the San Gabriel Mountains. Famously known for the Rose Parade and the Rose Bowl Game, one of the many things taken seriously in Pasadena is having fun. Much like Van Halen’s backyard parties of yesteryear, Pasadena’s social calendar is filled with bucket-list concerts, sporting events, festivals, theater and art. Not far from downtown LA, this lush urban oasis is a serene part of the metroplex that is carefully preserved and delicately restored. Allow the inspiring architecture and stunning botanical gardens to slow your pulse. Perusing through Pasadena’s signature boutiques, record shops and flea markets might unearth something of a time capsule, with stories dating back over a century. The food scene boasts a contrast of experiences, where trendy cafés and haute cuisine thrive next to longstanding roadhouses and classic diners. After hours, the dinner crowd will find their way to the theater, comedy club, speakeasies and sports bars. The community-centric identity of Pasadenans is heartwarming. No matter where you go or what you do, enjoy the spellbinding allure of Pasadena.
