Arsenal trophy parade: Date, start time and route after Gunners clinch Premier League title | OneFootball

Gunners could yet win a famous double with Champions League final coming up

Arsenal’s trophy parade after clinching the Premier League title will be held after the Champions League final.

After beating Burnley 1-0 on Monday night to move five points clear at the top of the table with only one game remaining, Arsenal’s hopes of wrapping up the title before facing Crystal Palace away on the last day of the season rested on events at the Vitality Stadium on Tuesday, as rivals Manchester City faced a tricky must-win trip to high-flying Bournemouth.

Eli Junior Kroupi broke the deadlock shortly before half-time with a stunning curling finish, leaving City needing to find two goals without reply to stop the celebrations in north London.

Erling Haaland smashed home deep into second-half stoppage time to give City hope, but it proved to be too little, too late as their 1-1 draw confirmed Arsenal as Premier League champions for the first time in 22 years - since the famous ‘Invincibles’ season of 2003/04 under Arsene Wenger.

Arsenal’s trophy parade will take place on Sunday May 31, 2026 - the day after Mikel Arteta’s side meet holders Paris Saint-Germain in the Champions League final in Budapest, hoping to seal a famous double.

If Arsenal win the Champions League for the first time in their history at the Puskas Arena, they will celebrate with both trophies during an open-top bus parade upon their return from Hungary. If not, they will still go ahead with the parade with the Premier League trophy.

A start time and route has not yet been confirmed by Arsenal, but previous plans started at the Emirates Stadium, with a bus travelling along Drayton Park, Aubert Park, Highbury Grove, St Paul’s Road, Upper Street and then back to the stadium.

The parade will have to take place on Sunday, with many of Arsenal’s World Cup-bound stars due to be released to their respective international squads on Monday, June 1.

The likely need for the parade to start before the evening means that those fans in Budapest for the final will need to hot foot it back to north London, or else they will miss out.
