The City of Arlington is gearing up to celebrate the historic victory of the Texas Rangers in the 2023 World Series with a grand victory parade in the Entertainment District. Fans from all over North Texas are invited to join in on the festivities on Friday, November 3, 2023. The free event promises to be a memorable experience for everyone.

Mayor Jim Ross expressed his enthusiasm for the Rangers' long-awaited triumph, stating, "The Texas Rangers' World Series victory is a dream five decades in the making. We want fans to come out to the Entertainment District this Friday and really enjoy the moment, soak it all up and have a great time."

To accommodate the large influx of visitors, free parking will be available around Globe Life Field and AT&T Stadium starting from 8 a.m. However, specific parking areas such as Live! by Loews parking garage, Cowboys parking Lot 4, and Rangers' parking lots A, B, R, and T will be closed due to their location within the parade route. Handicap parking spaces will be allocated on a first-come, first-served basis in designated Texas Rangers parking lots along the parade route.

To ensure the safety and smooth flow of the parade, several streets surrounding Globe Life Field and Choctaw Stadium will be temporarily closed starting at 10 a.m. These include Cowboys Way, AT&T Way, Nolan Ryan Expressway, E Road to Six Flags Drive, Ballpark Way, and Randol Mill Road.

The highly anticipated parade is scheduled to kick off at 12:15 p.m. on Cowboys Way, just south of Globe Life Field. The route will take a clockwise loop around Globe Life Field and Choctaw Stadium, covering approximately 1.9 miles. Spectators can expect to see Texas Rangers players, Mayor Jim Ross, the Arlington City Council, representatives from the Arlington police and fire departments, as well as local school marching bands.

Following the parade, attendees are invited to gather in the Globe Life Field North Plaza and the adjacent Tundra Lot B for a public ceremony. The 30-minute program will feature remarks from Texas Rangers executives, manager Bruce Bochy, and Rangers' players, led by Texas Rangers Hall of Famer Chuck Morgan.

For those unable to attend the parade, Bally Sports Southwest will provide comprehensive coverage, ensuring that Rangers fans don't miss any of the action. Local media outlets will also be reporting on the parade.

The Texas Rangers' World Series Victory Parade promises to be a memorable celebration as the city of Arlington honors the team's historic achievement. It is an opportunity for fans to come together and show their support for the Texas Rangers, as well as revel in the joy of their long-awaited and well-deserved championship victory.
