If they win, the celebration will begin with an exclusive gathering at Arrowhead Stadium for players, their families, Missouri Gov. Mike Kehoe and Kansas City Mayor Quinton Lucas. That gathering may be broadcast on screens along the parade route.
Following the Arrowhead celebration, players would stage near Crown Center. Players will load there for the parade, with a parade route to begin at Pershing and Main, then go to Grand and extend up Grand to 6th Street.
On Thursday, more than 100 stakeholders, including city officials, law enforcement, hospitals, head of the sports commission Kathy Nelson and many other gathered to finalize the plan.
This parade route has been designed to minimize crowd density. Planners expect to have special experiences along the parade route for fans to enjoy.
