The parade route will start at Grant Street at Liberty Avenue and proceed southwest until taking a right onto Boulevard of the Allies and ending at the Stanwix Street intersection, where a stage will be set up for the players and coaches to make comments and address the crowd.
The Penguins are focusing on safety for the event:
In the interest of safety, the parade route will be restricted to designated parade participants only. Members of the media (with the exception of the single designated photographers and videographers) and members of the public will not be permitted inside the parade route.
Television coverage of the event will be provided by WPXI beginning at 12 p.m. ET and running through the entire event. You can also stream the parade live on the Penguins’ web site.
The Penguins defeated the San Jose Sharks in six games to secure the franchise's fourth Stanley Cup.
