Arsenal will parade the Premier League trophy around Islington on Sunday, May 31, following a historic campaign that saw the Gunners secure their first league title in over 20 years. The title was confirmed on Tuesday when Manchester City failed to beat Bournemouth, sparking jubilant scenes at the London Colney training base and among thousands of supporters who flocked to the Emirates Stadium.
Club Thanks Supporters
In a statement to the fans, the club expressed their gratitude: "Thank you to our supporters for being with us every step of the way on this incredible journey—showing up and turning out for each other and taking us back to where we belong."
Official Trophy Presentation
The official trophy presentation is set for this weekend at Selhurst Park, where the team will lift the silverware in front of their traveling supporters after the final whistle against Crystal Palace. The subsequent parade, which begins at 2pm, will serve as a double celebration. On Saturday, May 30, at 5pm (UK time), Arsenal will take on reigning champions Paris Saint-Germain in Budapest for the UEFA Champions League Final. If successful in their bid to claim the European title for the first time, the parade will also celebrate that historic achievement.
Public Event and Disruptions
As a major public event, the club anticipates large numbers of supporters and has advised local residents and businesses of significant disruption. This will include road closures and parking suspensions across the borough, making it difficult to move normally around the area or pass through the parade route. Further specific details regarding the parade will be released closer to the time.
