After scoring the biggest victory of his career, Terence Crawford will be honored with a victory parade in the city of Omaha, Nebraska, on September 27.

Riyadh Season and the City of Omaha will host this parade, which begins at 10 a.m. and is expected to draw the entire city out to join in the festivities. This will be 14 days after Crawford pulled off a huge unanimous decision victory over Saul ‘Canelo’ Alvarez in front of 70,842 fans at Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas, NV, on Netflix. The streaming company announced on Monday that the event drew over 41 million views worldwide, making it only the second-highest-viewed boxing card on their platform, after Jake Paul vs. Mike Tyson.

Details of the parade were sent out on Thursday morning by Team Crawford.

The celebratory parade will start at 19th and Farnam at 10 a.m., and travel to 10th and Harney before culminating in Heartland of America Park where the full presentation will take place to honor the historic achievements of one of boxing’s all-time greats and Omaha’s own. Fans are encouraged to line the parade route to show support for Team Crawford and celebrate his incredible accomplishments.

In addition to Crawford and his history-making coaches, the event will feature several special guests and city and state officials who will come together to honor Crawford, his team, the contributions he continues to make in Omaha and his inspirational story of success that has impacted people across the globe.

More information on Crawford’s media availability prior to the event will be shared shortly. See below for the full parade route.”
