The Texas Rangers will be celebrating their historic World Series victory with a championship parade in Arlington, Texas on Friday. After their first-ever franchise win, fans are eager to join in the festivities. Here is everything you need to know before attending the parade.

The parade is set to start at 12:15 p.m. on Friday and will take place in Arlington's entertainment district. The route will cover a distance of 1.9 miles and is expected to last approximately one hour. The parade will follow a clockwise direction around the district.

For those planning to attend, parking will be provided in lots surrounding Globe Life Field and AT&T Stadium. These parking lots will open at 8 a.m. and will be free of charge. However, parking lots within the parade's circular route, such as the Live! by Loews hotel parking garage and Cowboys Lots 4, will be closed.

Road closures will go into effect at 10 a.m., shutting down all roads along the parade route as well as within the route itself. The specific road closures include Cowboys Way from AT&T Way to Stadium Drive, AT&T Way from Cowboys Way to Nolan Ryan Expressway, Nolan Ryan Expressway from AT&T Way to Road to Six Flags Drive and then to Randol Mill Road, Road to Six Flags Drive from Nolan Ryan Expressway to Ballpark Way, Ballpark Way (which becomes Stadium Drive after Randol Mill Road) from Road to Six Flags Drive to Cowboys Way, and Randol Mill Road from AT&T Way to Ballpark Way.

The parade will commence on Cowboys Way by Lot A, adjacent to Globe Life Field. It will feature all the Rangers players, Arlington Mayor Jim Ross, and the city council. Other participants will include representatives from Arlington's public safety agencies and local school marching bands.

A designated viewing area will be situated between Globe Life Field and Choctaw Stadium, equipped with video screens for optimal viewing. Another video screen will be available on the east side of Choctaw Stadium.

Once the parade concludes, a celebration will take place at the Texas Live! complex north of Globe Life Field. The celebration will include speeches from Rangers executives, players, and manager Bruce Bochy. The 30-minute program will be led by Hall of Famer Chuck Morgan.

Fans are encouraged to celebrate safely and exhibit courtesy towards others. While there are no specific restrictions, such as alcohol or tents, put in place for the event by Arlington, officials urge attendees to be mindful of their behavior.

Public restrooms and concessions will be accessible via the north and west entrances of Choctaw Stadium, ensuring attendees have convenient facilities throughout the festivities.

The parade will be televised on Bally Sports Southwest, with local outlets also providing coverage according to a news release. It promises to be a joyous occasion as Texas Rangers fans come together to honor their team's historic achievement.
