The parade in Crown Heights starts at Utica Avenue near Lincoln Terrace Park. It travels west on Eastern Parkway to Grand Army Plaza, ending near the Brooklyn Museum and Prospect Park. The roughly two-mile route is typically lined with more than a million spectators and has more than a dozen security checkpoints. Street closures for the festivities will begin Sunday and last through Monday, at the discretion of police, the New York City Department of Transportation says.

"The parade is set to take place on Saturday (23 August). Starting at 12pm BST, marchers will set off from Liverpool Road and navigate through the city centre via Deansgate, Peter Street, Oxford Road, Portland Street, Princess Street and Whitworth Street, before ended up at Fairfield Street at about 3pm BST. An accessible viewing area is located opposite The Midland Hotel, on Peter Street."
