The expected date for Liverpool’s title-winning bus parade has been revealed as the Reds close in on a record-equalling 20th league title.
Liverpool will be crowned Premier League champions if they avoid defeat against Tottenham Hotspur at Anfield this Sunday.
In the all-time standings, Liverpool trail only Manchester United in of league titles won but very soon the Merseyside giants will level the playing field.
When is Liverpool’s bus parade?
Liverpool’s bus parade is expected to be held on Monday, May 26 – a day after the final game of the Premier League season at home to Crystal Palace where they’ll lift the trophy.
The last time the Reds held a bus parade was in 2022, celebrating Carabao Cup and FA Cup triumphs the day following Champions League final heartbreak to Real Madrid.
Liverpool fans haven’t celebrated a league title parade since 1990 as the club were unable to organise an event in 2020 due to lockdown restrictions amid the COVID-19 pandemic.
It was estimated more than 750,000 ers flocked to the streets of Liverpool in 2019 to celebrate the team’s European success after beating Spurs 2-0 in the Champions League final.
What route will Liverpool’s bus parade take?
We can expect the 2025 parade to take the same route as both the 2019 and 2022 celebrations.
Spanning over 13.5km, the parade will begin at Allerton Maze in the south of the city before travelling northbound onto Queen’s Drive in the direction of the Fiveways roundabout (Chidwall) and on to the Rocket flyover.
It will then journey along Mill Bank, West Derby Road, Islington, Leeds Street and The Strand before finishing at Blundell Street.
Liverpool bus parade road closures
We can also expect similar road closures to that of 2019 and 2022. The Strand will likely be closed northbound from Leeds Street/Old Hall Street junction to Blundell Street from early doors on May 26 before it is deemed safe to reopen.
The southbound lane will be closed later in the day too. Allerton Maze, Queen’s Drive, Millbank, West Derby Road (outward bound), Erskine Street, Islington, Hunter Street and Leeds Street will only be closed in the event of overcrowding.
West Derby Road citybound from Sheil Road will be closed in the afternoon until the parade finishes.
