Would be about a 45 minute commute. Rosedale is a rich neighborhood that's just outside the border of the downtown core.
I don't think you really NEED to be close to the parade. The other stuff going on at night is kinda scattered throughout the city anyways. So if you found a great deal/place you like I don't see much reason not to stay there. But you'll have to take a subway and then streetcar/bus to get to the parade.
