Super Bowl Parade in Philadelphia: Route, road closures, SEPTA, bathrooms, and food
1 million people are expected to celebrate the Eagles Super Bowl win.
The Eagles are back on Broad Street after their second Super Bowl victory in franchise history. More than a million fans are expected to flood Philadelphia for the celebrations.
On Friday, Feb. 14, the Philadelphia Eagles, along with family, friends, and fans, will parade through the city, culminating in a celebration at the Philadelphia Museum of Art.
The Eagles dominated the Kansas City Chiefs in Super Bowl LIX, securing a 40-22 victory and holding the Chiefs scoreless until the final minutes of the third quarter.
Now, Philadelphia is ready to celebrate the team and its historic win.
