CREATING AWARD WINNING FLOATS FOR DECADES

For over 30 years, AES has been a premiere float builder for the Rose Parade, creating show-stopping, award-winners that attract local and national media coverage and spark conversations that last long after the parade is complete. In the past few years alone, our company has created floats celebrating Nintendo's Pac-Man character, George Lucas’ Star Wars, and NBC’s The Voice, and we were honored to receive the prestigious “Extraordinaire Trophy” for our 2016 Disneyland Diamond Celebration entry.

At AES, we pride ourselves on delivering an exceptional float sponsor experience. With our year-round team of more than 200 creatives and fabricators, we provide our clients with industry-leading craftsmanship and one-on-one support throughout the lifecycle of their project, from design through construction, logistics, and event-planning.
