The City of Philadelphia and the Super Bowl LIX Champion Philadelphia Eagles will hold a celebration on Friday, February 14, 2025, beginning at 11 a.m. The parade will begin at Lincoln Financial Field and make its way to the iconic steps of the Philadelphia Museum of Art.  

During a press conference today, Mayor Cherelle L. Parker, Philadelphia Eagles President Don Smolenski and City officials detailed preparations including the parade route, timing, accessibility and additional event information.  

“As we celebrate the Philadelphia Eagles’ incredible journey to the Super Bowl, let‘s remember the resilience that defines our city and team,” said Mayor Cherelle L. Parker. “While City offices and buildings will be closed to allow everyone to join the festivities, our focus will remain on keeping all Philadelphians safe. We are One Philly, a United City. GO Birds!” 

The parade route has been thoughtfully planned for the safety and security of all attendees. With large crowds expected, we ask everyone to celebrate responsibly and respectfully, making this a moment Philadelphia can be proud of.  

“On behalf of the Philadelphia Police Department, I want to congratulate the Philadelphia Eagles on bringing their second Super Bowl title back to Philly,” said Philadelphia Police Commissioner Kevin J. Bethel. “This Friday, we’ll be celebrating a momentous day for our city, and we’re teaming up with our city, state, and federal partners to keep things running smoothly and safely. You’ll see plenty of officers along the parade route, and we ask everyone to celebrate responsibly and look out for one another. Because large crowds and road closures are expected, consider taking public transportation to help reduce traffic and make your day a bit easier. Let’s come together, show our One Philly pride, and make this parade an incredible celebration that we’ll remember forever.”  

“Our goal is to help people as they hopefully plan in advance of coming into the city for this special Eagles celebration and ensure safety,” said Managing Director Adam K. Thiel. “Through the City’s ReadyPhiladelphia public information and alert system, people can sign up for free text alerts from the City to keep informed of transit, weather, and public safety info for Friday’s Parade.

Public Safety Information

The City’s Office of Emergency Management is coordinating the public safety planning for the parade. As of Monday, there are over 50 agencies representing city, state, federal, and non-governmental organizations working together to build a common operating picture and realize logistics needs for Friday. This will culminate in the City’s Emergency Operations Center, Mobile Command Post, and Joint Information Center being activated for the event with many of those same partners.   

Throughout the event, the City will provide law enforcement support, traffic control, and emergency medical services.  

The Philadelphia Fire Department will staff medic (EMS) tents at the following locations:  

  • 24th Street & Benjamin Franklin Parkway (south side)  
  • Pennsylvania Avenue and Spring Garden Street 
  • Aviator Park  

Take missing or lost persons to either of the medic tent locations listed above or notify a Philadelphia Police Officer immediately. 

Alpha-numeric “location markers” are posted along the Benjamin Franklin Parkway to clearly and easily identify a location or section (by letter and number, example: CD-1) to facilitate communication in the event of an emergency.    

Smoking is not permitted on any Parks & Recreation property including, but limited to, buildings, playgrounds, ice or skating rinks, fields or courts, pools, picnic areas, walking areas and parking lots.  

In addition, the public should expect congestion in these areas. If you are attending the parade, make a plan regarding driving, public transit, parking, and supervision of children. It is recommended that attendees wear comfortable, weather-appropriate attire.  

Be prepared to walk, as road closures near the parade route will lead to traffic congestion and delays.  

The City asks the public to do their part, use common sense, and stay aware of their surroundings  

Leave no bags or items unattended. In an emergency or to report a suspicious person, activity or item (a backpack, a package, a container), notify a police officer immediately or call 9-1-1.  Do not try to open, move, cover or touch a suspicious item.  

Have a plan:  

  • Know where you want to go and how you’re going to get there before you leave the door.   
  • Discuss an emergency meet-up location if you and your friends or family get separated. Look for landmarks.    
  • There will be a lot of people out on Friday using their cell phones and service bandwidth may be faulty. Consider texts or posts through social media apps to communicate.  
  • If bringing children, make sure they are wearing bright colors or distinct clothes. Take a picture of them before leaving and email it to yourself. Write your phone number on a bracelet, on their wrist, or a piece of paper in their pocket.   
  • When you get to your location, be sure to look for the quickest way to exit if you need to.  
  • Make sure you check the weather before you go and dress properly. It’s going to be colder Friday. Dress warmly. Wear your Eagles hats, gloves… you’ll be outside for a while. Bring plenty of water.  
  • If you see something suspicious, say something. Tell the nearest police officer or public safety official.  
  • If you call 911 for police or fire assistance, know your location. Not only the nearest street signs, but a landmark and clothing description to help  first responders find you.
