UPDATE: The Los Angeles Dodgers are set to celebrate their thrilling World Series victory with a grand parade through Downtown L.A. on Monday, November 3, at 11 AM. After a dramatic seven-game series against the Toronto Blue Jays, this marks the Dodgers’ second consecutive championship, a feat not achieved by any MLB team in 25 years.
This victory parade promises to be an electrifying homecoming for fans, especially as the team clinched the title on the road. The parade will kick off at Temple Street and Broadway, just north of Grand Park, and will proceed west on Temple, south on Grand Avenue until 7th Street, then west again, culminating at Figueroa Street and 5th Street.
Attendance is free, but fans should note that a ticketed celebration at Dodger Stadium will follow at 12:15 PM, with tickets going on sale Sunday at noon. However, fans will not be able to attend both events due to timing conflicts.
For those planning to attend, it’s highly recommended to use public transportation. With expected road closures and thousands of attendees flooding the area, traffic is likely to be gridlocked. The parade route is conveniently located near four major Metro stations: Civic Center/Grand Park, Grand Ave Arts/Bunker Hill, Pershing Square, and 7th St/Metro Center. Other nearby stations include Historic Broadway, Union Station, and Little Tokyo/Arts District.
If you can’t make it to the parade, don’t worry! You can catch all the action live. The event will be broadcast on MLB Network and MLB.com, with local coverage starting earlier on channels including SportsNet L.A., CBS 2, NBC 4, KTLA 5, ABC 7, KCAL 9, and Fox 11, as well as radio coverage on AM 570.
As preparations ramp up, one piece of advice from last year’s parade: arriving early is crucial, and taking the Metro is your best bet to avoid traffic pitfalls. Many streets will be closed, and parking will be limited, so plan accordingly to ensure you don’t miss the celebration.
Stay tuned as we continue to update this story with the latest information leading up to the parade!
