The 2016 Tournament of Roses' Rose Parade will take place Friday morning in Pasadena, California.

The 127th edition of the famed New Year's Day parade starts at 8 a.m. PT (11 a.m. ET) and will last two hours. The parade will broadcast nationally, live on ABC, NBC, HGTV, Univision, and the Hallmark Channel. Those without a television can stream the parade live on ABC's website with authentification from a cable provider.

Award-winning documentary filmmaker Ken Burns will serve as Grand Marshal of the parade.

"Find Your Adventure" is the theme for this year's parade, and will include the usual floral floats, horses, and marching bands. It will pay tribute to the 102nd Rose Bowl college football tournament game, which takes place at 1:30 p.m. PT the same day, between the Iowa Hawkeyes and the Stanford Cardinals.
