Via Directsattv.com - Get ready to see HGTV’s 2012 Rose Parade in a whole new way with DIRECTV’s broadcast of the parade in 3D. The two hour parade, also known as America’s New Year celebration, kicks off its 123rd Rose Parade on January 2 at 11 a.m. Eastern. The event will be hosted by Nancy O’Dell from Entertainment Tonight, Jamie Durie from HGTV’s The Outdoor Room, and TV producer Robb Weller. This year’s Grand Marshall will be J.R. Martinez, a former U.S. Army soldier and recent contestant on Dancing with the Stars.
Every float for the event is decorated and covered in flowers. No fake flowers or plants are allowed so all surfaces of the float structure must be covered in natural plant material. The floats are extravagant and beautiful, very intricately designed. Every float is different and they are amazing to see – the amount of hard work is obvious when you see the detail put into each float. With DIRECTV’s 3D coverage, you’ll see the parade from every angle.
