Crystal Palace parade and pitch party confirmed

Crystal Palace have announced plans for a day of celebrations following last weekend's FA Cup victory - their first major trophy.

This coming bank holiday, Monday 26 May, the team is to show off the trophy to fans during an open-top bus victory parade starting at the top of Whitehorse Lane at 13:00 BST and ending at Selhurst Park.

This will be followed by a "party on the pitch" inside the stadium, starting at 14:30. The stadium event will only be open to ticket-holders.

Tickets are free but must be booked in advance. They are not required for the victory parade.

Tickets are available for the event inside the stadium to season ticket-holders and members.

Further tickets will be available for the general public to book online on the club's website from 17:00 on Friday.

Supporters can either book standing tickets on the pitch, or seats in the main stand.

The route will proceed down Whitehorse Lane, and then turn left, going around the the eastern edge of the stadium, first along Park Road and then Holmesdale Road and ending at a stadium entrance.

It is expected to take about 45 minutes.

Following the parade, the ticketed event inside the stadium will begin at 14:30.

This will include live entertainment, special guests and end-of-season awards, the club says.

Food and drink will be on sale.
