They’ve finally done it. After three consecutive second place finishes, Arsenal have ended a 22-year wait to be crowned the Premier League champions once more. The title was confirmed last night (Tues May 19) when Manchester City failed to beat Bournemouth.
Plenty of partying has already taken place, with tens of thousands attending a huge unofficial party outside the Emirates overnight. Several players joined the celebrations, with Bukayo Saka, Eberechi Eze and Declan Rice all making an appearance.
Arsenal’s season could still get even better, with a Champions League final to play against Paris Saint Germain on May 30, but an official title celebration is already confirmed. Whether they win in Europe or not, an open-top bus parade will take place that same weekend.
Here’s what you need to know about that parade, including its date and potential route.
Arsenal trophy parade date
Mark your calendars, Gunners fans, for Sunday May 31 2026. That’s the provisional date for the parade.
Potential route
The trophy parade route hasn’t yet been confirmed. However, earlier plans featured a parade that started and ended at the Emirates Stadium, passing by Drayton Park, Aubert Park, Highbury Grove, St Paul’s Road and Upper Street.
When is the Champion’s League final?
Mikel Arteta’s team could still win the double this season. They’ll face PSG in the Champion’s League final on Saturday May 30 2026, with kick-off at 5pm BST. If you’re lucky enough to have a ticket for the final, which is in Budapest, you’ll need to step on it to get back in time for the parade.
