The parade will begin at 12:15 Pm ET, departing from rue du Stade near Stade Quillorama, then continue along rue de l'Hippodrome, turning onto rue des Forges, followed by rue Royale, and finally heading toward the port area via rue St-Georges.
The procession will conclude near the banks of the St. Lawrence River at approximately 1 Pm .
A stage will be set up on site where members of the organization will address the crowd. Fans in attendance will have the chance to meet the players from the Lions' championship-winning roster and see the three trophies hoisted by the team:
The E.A. "Bud" Gingher Trophy, awarded to the Eastern Conference champions.

The June M. Kelly Playoff MVP Trophy, presented to goaltender Luke Cavallin.
And, of course, the Kelly Cup, which will parade through the streets alongside the players.
The Lions became just the second Canadian team in ECHL history to hoist a Cup, joining the Newfoundland Growlers in 2019. They won the Central Division, swept Reading in the opening round of the playoffs, then downed Norfolk and three-time defending champion Florida each in six games before taking the Final against Toledo.
