Fans can enjoy highlights of Hull City’s play-off final victory over Middlesborough on a big screen alongside interviews with players and coaches.

Supporting acts, including pitch-side announcer Steve Jordan and DJ Eddie Richards, will warm up the crowd for the team’s appearance at 4:15 pm.

The celebration will offer the players an opportunity to express gratitude for the fans' support.

Accessibility and Closures

A designated viewing area for wheelchair users will be situated in front of the stage.

While no bookings are required, spaces are limited, allowing accessibility for wheelchair users and a helper on a first come, first served basis.

Road closures will be in effect for parade safety, with Carr Lane and Paragon Street closed from 8:00 am to 8:00 pm.

Bus users should verify route changes with local operators due to these closures.

Cllr Mike Ross, leader of the council, praised Hull City: ““Their journey to this moment has not been an easy one – from being tipped as relegation candidates at the start of the season, to all the uncertainty relating to who they would face in the play-offs at the end – the team have come through it all.“
