The parade will begin at 2pm on Sunday, 31 May, and will celebrate **Arsenal**’s **Premier League** title, and the women’s **FIFA Women’s Champions Cup** success.
The event will feature four open-top buses and a champions truck with DJs leading the procession.
The first bus will carry the Premier League champions, the second will carry the men’s team staff, the third will carry the women’s team with the **FIFA Women’s Champions Cup**, and the fourth will be a community bus featuring **Arsenal in the Community** participants and Arsenal staff nominated for outstanding contribution.
The club expect a huge turnout and have urged supporters to plan ahead, spread out along the route and be considerate of children, families, disabled supporters, residents and local businesses. The buses will keep moving throughout the parade, so fans are being encouraged not to gather in one area.
Emirates Stadium, **Drayton Park** and surrounding roads will be closed and inaccessible to the public throughout the parade. Supporters have also been told not to congregate around **Hornsey Road**, **Benwell Road** or Drayton Park, as the teams will not be visible from those locations.
**Islington** and **Hackney** councils will put temporary parking suspensions and road closures in place across multiple streets, with closures expected from around 4am until around 8pm on Sunday, possibly later if required for safety. All roads along the parade route, as well as side roads leading to it, will be affected. Signage for affected roads will be in place from 27 May, and residents and businesses have been advised to check it in advance.

The parade route forms a large loop around **Emirates Stadium** and the surrounding **Islington** streets.
The route appears to start near **Hornsey Road**, then heads north-west towards **Seven Sisters Road**, before moving across the top of the map via **Blackstock Road** and **Mountgrove Road**. It then turns down the eastern side through **Green Lanes** and **Petherton Road**, continuing towards **Newington Green Road** and **Essex Road**.
From there, it runs south-west along **Essex Road**, then up through **Upper Street**, passing close to **Angel** and **Highbury and Islington**, before heading back towards **Holloway Road** and completing the loop around the Emirates area.
The map also marks a **no pedestrian access** zone in red and white around parts of **Drayton Park** and the approaches immediately beside **Emirates Stadium**, meaning supporters should not expect to view the parade from directly outside the ground.
