Here’s How To Attend The LA Rams Super Bowl Victory Parade
The Los Angeles Rams are getting something the Lakers and Dodgers didn’t for their championships: a chance to ride through their hometown streets and bask in the winning glory.
In celebration of the Rams’ epic last-minute Super Bowl win on Sunday against the Cincinnati Bengals, the team will have a victory parade starting at 11 a.m. on Wednesday, Feb. 16.
Players, coaches and floats will cruise down the streets with the public. The parade will kick off at the west parking lot of the Shrine Auditorium on West Jefferson Boulevard and end with a 12 p.m. rally at the L.A. Memorial Coliseum’s peristyle on Bill Robertson Lane.
Fans will be able to freely walk the routes. The path goes around the Coliseum, but the parade won’t go inside. Use this map to guide your way.
Freeway Exists And Road Closures
If you’re planning to drive there, be prepared for traffic. Consider taking alternate routes or using Metro — you can easily access the parade route from the Jefferson/USC, Expo Park/USC, or Expo/Vermont stations on Expo (E) line.
Road closures will begin at 8 a.m. and certain freeway exits will be closed starting at 7 a.m. Here’s where to avoid:
- Figueroa Street between Adams Boulevard and Martin Luther King Jr. Boulevard
- Jefferson Boulevard between Figueroa Street and Hoover Street
- Exposition Boulevard between Bill Robertson Lane and Figueroa Street
- Bill Robertson Lane between Martin Luther King Jr. Boulevard and Exposition Boulevard
- 110 Southbound off-ramp at Exposition Boulevard
- 110 Northbound HOV off-ramp at 39th Street
The L.A. Department of Transportation plans to open the streets back up as the parade rolls through.
Want to snag a good spot? Exposition Park will be open at 8 a.m. for the early birds, or fans can find a place along the route to get a good view and walk over, such as the corner of 39th Street and Exposition Park Drive that’s near the end of the route.
While the formal event is expected to end by 1:30 p.m., undoubtedly fans will stay out celebrating, as is L.A. style, for a while after it concludes.
As Editor-in-Chief of our newsroom, I’m extremely proud of the work our top-notch journalists are doing here at LAist. We’re doing more hard-hitting watchdog journalism than ever before — powerful reporting on the economy, elections, climate and the homelessness crisis that is making a difference in your lives. At the same time, it’s never been more difficult to maintain a paywall-free, independent news source that informs, inspires, and engages everyone.
Simply put, we cannot do this essential work without your help. Federal funding for public media has been clawed back by Congress and that means LAist has lost $3.4 million in federal funding over the next two years. So we’re asking for your help. LAist has been there for you and we’re asking you to be here for us.
We rely on donations from readers like you to stay independent, which keeps our nonprofit newsroom strong and accountable to you.
No matter where you stand on the political spectrum, press freedom is at the core of keeping our nation free and fair. And as the landscape of free press changes, LAist will remain a voice you know and trust, but the amount of reader support we receive will help determine how strong of a newsroom we are going forward to cover the important news from our community.
Please take action today to support your trusted source for local news with a donation that makes sense for your budget.
Thank you for your generous support and believing in independent news.
