Knicks fans eager to celebrate their team’s first championship in 53 years will need to line up as early as 6 a.m. to grab a viewing spot for Thursday’s ticker-tape parade.
Access points for what Mayor Zohran Mamdani said could be the city’s largest parade ever will open at least four hours before the festivities kick off in downtown Manhattan at 10 a.m., officials said Wednesday.
Revelers will be screened with restrictions on what fans can bring to the parade, including bags, glass or metal water bottles, pets, umbrellas, coolers and bikes or scooters.
Plastic water bottles will still be allowed.
The parade will step off near Bowling Green and head north along Broadway before reaching City Hall for a ceremony.
Viewing for the parade is free and no ticket is required, but the ceremony at City Hall will only be for ticket holders.
