For the second time in the last eight seasons, it’s party time in Philadelphia.

The Eagles are Super Bowl champions, which means the City of Philadelphia is preparing to throw another championship parade to celebrate its second Lombardi Trophy. Players, coaches, staff, family members and other guests will process through the city on open-air buses to celebrate with an expected crowd of over one million fans – some local and some who traveled to be there.

It will be Philadelphia’s first parade to celebrate a local sports team’s championship since the one after the Eagles’ Super Bowl victory in 2018.
