KTLA's has setup a temporary IFB to the blimp on 161.6875 Mhz. Must be near Pasadena to hear.
Tiger Squadron (civillian flight team) has a flyover during the parade but I don't have their times or freqs.

CORRECTION on the above: They are using KTLA's IFB freq of 161.685

That IFB is always up. It's usually a little more interesting and I can hear it in Simi Valley...
Out of curiousity, how do you find these frequencies? It seems that it is never predictable...
The civilian Tiger Squadron just did their parade flyover. 135.950 AM (I've been searching for them for awhile).
Though it can be hard to predict, a lot of squadrons have standard air to air frequencies they use as they fly around the country or frequencies used for air shows or flyovers. The RR database have many squadron frequencies in it, though you may need to be scanning ten or twelve or whatever until you find the active one. Other option is searching the milair band and using the search feature in the RR forums for previous mentions of active frequencies.

I live in central AZ, where one of the Gladden-Bagdad range frequencies is 341.75. I wouldn't have expected to hear the B-2's from here, but because it's already programmed in my scanner, I did hear them as they passed through the area. The only ID I got was DEATH 1-1, but "2" popped up for a couple of acknowledgments. They might have been talking to a tanker, as there was someone else in the conversation. They eventually mentioned going to 353.95 with ATC. I picked them up there, but this is not a frequency I have on my list, so I don't know what ARTCC controller they were talking to. There was nothing on ADS-B.
For those who may run across this post later...The parade route and post-parade areas are divided up into several patrol areas, each spanning a section of the route. These sections are known by color, hence the Red, Gold, etc. The section/color is always the same from year to year.
I remember from my SCC days that there were five areas with the Brown area that handled the pre-parade neighborhood near OrangeGrove and Colorado about a half mile or so in all directions. It was by far the busiest area because it had Old-Town and all the disputes that became fights all night.
The eastern area where the parade ended and people could go view the floats up close was gold.
The other three in between I can't recall. It's been a good 25 years or more and the aged forget things. LOL.
