Mayor Eric Adams announced that New York City will hold a ticker-tape parade for the New York Liberty on Thursday, Oct. 24, celebrating their historic WNBA championship win. This marks the city's third ticker-tape parade honoring a women's sports team, highlighting the Liberty's impressive overtime victory that made history.
The parade will begin at 10 a.m. on Thursday, and for those unable to attend in person, NBC 4 New York will air live coverage of the event. The streets around the Canyon of Heroes will face closures, and specific measures will be in place to manage crowds and ensure safety.
Street closures will begin at 6 a.m. and restrictions on parking will be enforced starting at midnight on Wednesday. The NYPD is facilitating the event, and access to the Brooklyn Bridge will also be altered during this time, requiring residents to plan their travel accordingly.
The MTA will implement changes to train services and may close certain subway exits in the parade vicinity, which means many bus routes will be affected. Attendees and commuters should check the MTA website for up-to-date information to navigate the disruptions during the parade festivities.
