When is the Chicago Blackhawks Stanley Cup Parade and Rally?
Tickets for Soldier Field rally go on sale at noon. Plus, here's a video of the Blackhawks singing "We Are the Champions."
A parade to honor the Chicago Blackhawks and their Stanley Cup championship will step off Thursday at 10 a.m. and be followed by a rally at Soldier Field.
The parade starts at the corner of Monroe and Jefferson streets and heads east on Monroe to Michigan Avenue. Tickets will be required to enter the rally but will be free. Tickets may be purchased on Ticketmaster.com starting at noon Wednesday. Four tickets are allowed per person.
“This is a tremendous victory for the team, for the coach. It’s a tremendous victory in the sense that they were able to secure the Stanley Cup at home in Chicago for the first time since 1938,” Mayor Rahm Emanuel said Tuesday. The mayor attended Monday night’s game. “It meant as much for the players to win for their fans as it meant for the fans to be able to see it here in the city.”
