About Pasadena
Pasadena is florishing
Our downtown is exciting, energetic and inviting. Our other commercial areas are prospering. Our neighborhoods are welcoming and thriving.
Though the pandemic impacted Pasadena, the effects are slowly subsiding as our businesses, landmarks, cultural institutions and event venues return with full access and a full slate of programming.
You can enjoy the elegance of the 1940s era while shopping on South Lake Avenue. In Old Pasadena, you can enjoy delicious food and drink from dozens of Chamber member restaurants and lounges and you can find the latest fashions, imports and much more at stores throughout Pasadena.
A walk through any of our historic residential neighborhoods makes you feel like you are strolling through a bygone era.
Though compact, comfortable and safe, Pasadena has everything a big city can provide. Our business community is vibrant. Our cultural life is varied and engaging. Our downtown is exciting and alive. Our neighborhoods are safe, comfortable and scenic. And then there’s the Rose Parade® and Rose Bowl® Game.
The Crown City has something for everyone. Visitors can find world class museums, galleries and performances. Pasadena offers top notch professional performances including Boston Court Pasadena, the Pasadena Playhouse and A Noise Within. Those seeking musical entertainment can find the Pasadena Symphony and the Pasadena POPS, as well as nightclubs specializing in jazz, rock and hip hop. A range of fine arts is available at museums as diverse the Pacific Asia Museum, the Williamson Gallery at Art Center College of Design and the Pasadena Museum of History.
