Photos of the New York Knicks Parade

The celebration will mark the team’s first ticker-tape parade, with 2,500 pounds of confetti prepared for the route, officials said.

  • On Thursday, the New York Knicks will celebrate their first NBA championship in 53 years with a ticker-tape parade, traveling from Battery Park through the Canyon of Heroes to City Hall, where Mayor Zohran Mamdani will present the team with Keys to the City.
  • Saturday's 94-90 victory in Game 5 against the San Antonio Spurs secured the Knicks' first title in 53 years, sparking celebrations across the city's five boroughs as fans streamed from packed bars and watch parties.
  • Police Commissioner Jessica Tisch ordered 10,000 officers deployed to Lower Manhattan, while the Downtown Alliance delivered 2,500 pounds of shredded paper to 22 buildings along the route for the traditional confetti cascade.
  • Hundreds of New Yorkers signed petitions urging authorities to reschedule Thursday's citywide science exams, while Mamdani illuminated municipal buildings in the team's orange-and-blue colors to amplify citywide enthusiasm.
  • Lilly Tuttle, curator at the Museum of the City of New York, described ticker-tape parades as marking New York as the 'headquarters of national celebration,' a tradition spanning 140 years and honoring military heroes, presidents, and athletes.
