Dodger World Series victory parade, stadium event set for Friday morning

The team noted that “due to logistics, traffic and timing, fans will not be able to attend both events (the parade and the stadium celebration).”

The Dodgers will celebrate their World Series title with a victory parade in downtown Los Angeles on Friday morning, followed by a special ticketed event at Dodger Stadium, the team announced tonight.

The parade, featuring players on double-decker buses, will kick off at 11 a.m. at Gloria Molina Grand Park near City Hall, located at 200 N. Spring St. Mayor Karen Bass will open the 45-minute parade, which will travel south on Spring Street, then west on First Street, south on Grand Avenue, and finally west on Fifth Street, ending near Fifth and Flower streets.

Fans planning to attend are “strongly encouraged” to use public transportation due to extensive street closures and limited parking availability.

After the parade, the team will head to Dodger Stadium for the ticketed celebration starting at 12:15 p.m. Stadium parking gates will open at 8:30 a.m., and entry gates at 9 a.m., with food, merchandise, and entertainment available. Fans can enjoy game coverage on the DodgerVision scoreboards before the team’s arrival.

All Dodger Stadium rules will be enforced, including restrictions on signs, bags, and other prohibited items, as noted by the team.

The team also clarified that “due to logistics, traffic, and timing,” fans will likely have to choose between the parade and the stadium event.

A portion of the proceeds from the stadium event will support the Los Angeles Dodgers Foundation, which addresses critical issues like education, health care, homelessness, and social justice in Los Angeles.

Both events will be broadcast live in full on Spectrum SportsNet LA and local TV stations, with coverage beginning at 9:30 a.m. Information on how to obtain tickets to the stadium event has not yet been released.
