Oscar-nominated actor Jeremy Renner, perhaps known to most fans for his role as Hawkeye in the “Avengers” film series, was the grand marshal.
Renner was nominated in 2010 for a best actor Oscar for his work in “The Hurt Locker,” and was nominated the following year for his supporting role in “The Town.” He currently appears in the streaming drama series “Mayor of Kingstown.”
Previous grand marshals have included Gene Autry, Charlton Heston, Bob Hope, Dick Van Dyke, Mary Pickford, James Stewart, Walter Matthau, John Wayne, Olivia Newton-John, Susan Lucci and Dwayne Johnson.

This year’s parade was hosted by actor Dean Cain and media personalities Laura McKenzie, Montel Williams and Elizabeth Stanton.
“Access Hollywood” host Mario Lopez took part in the procession and was honored as the parade’s Humanitarian of the Year. Other celebrities on hand included Denise Richards, Lou Ferrigno, Kate Linder, James Tupper, John Schneider, Nicole Eggert and former Lakers A.C. Green and Michael Cooper.
The parade has been held every year since 1928, except from 1942 to 1944 due to World War II, and in 2020, when it was canceled because of the pandemic.
When it was first held in 1928, it was known as the “Santa Claus Lane Parade.” Comedian Joe E. Brown was the first grand marshal, in 1932.
