Leeds announce Bank Holiday Monday promotion parade

Leeds United have announced an open-top bus parade on Bank Holiday Monday to celebrate winning promotion to the Premier League.

The club said large crowds were expected throughout the afternoon on 5 May as Daniel Farke and his team make their way around Leeds city centre.

In an announcement on Tuesday, the club confirmed the parade would follow a mile-long route to "take in the full length of the Headrow, as well as City Square, Boar Lane, New Market Street and parts of Wellington Street and Vicar Lane".

The parade is scheduled to last between one and one and a half hours, arriving in the city centre about 13:00 BST. It will also be streamed live on Leeds United TV.

The club added: "A programme of road closures and other traffic restrictions is due to be in place across much of the city centre from 8am to 5pm on Monday. Emergency service access will be maintained throughout this time.

"The size of the expected turnout means people coming into the city centre - for the parade or other reasons - are being asked to carefully plan their journeys in advance."
