It's the FIRST-ever Rose Bowl Stadium Games

BRING FRIENDS, FAMILY AND NEIGHBORS to the Rose Bowl Stadium Games on Sunday, May 16, from noon to 3pm featuring full access to the field, interactive games and tours of the landmark stadium. Admission IS FREE; gates will open at 11:30AM.

You'll be among the first to learn about the renovation plans for the 90,000-seat stadium as well as its history and tradition.

With a backdrop of great music, a local emcee will lead participants and spectators through a soccer challenge, armchair quarterback game, speed pitching, field goal kicks, free-throw challenge, bean bag toss, and fitness challenges. Watch the stadium's Jumbotron screens to see the fun as it happens. Little ones can also enjoy bounce houses, face painting and other child-friendly activities.
