Mayor Zohran Mamdani on Sunday revealed new details about Thursday's ticker-tape parade for the Knicks, fresh off their first title in 53 years.

The parade is scheduled to start at 10 a.m. near Battery Park and travel north along Broadway through the Canyon of Heroes before concluding at City Hall.

Mamdani will host a championship celebration and Key to the City ceremony on the City Hall Plaza immediately after the parade.

"As a fan, I haven't wanted to jinx it, but as the mayor, we've been preparing for all these logistics," Mamdani told ABC 7.

He also said that the Knicks reflect the never-give-up spirit of the city.

"I was reading a piece this morning that wrote about often times in our city's history, this kind of unity comes in a moment of tragedy, and it's so beautiful that this unity is coming from a moment of joy," he said.

The mayor previously announced that City Hall and municipal buildings across the city will be illuminated in blue and orange on the night of Thursday, June 18 in recognition of the victory.

Buildings confirmed to be lit include the David N. Dinkins Manhattan Municipal Building at 1 Centre Street and Brooklyn Borough Hall at 209 Joralemon Street. Additional city buildings may also participate in the tribute.

The celebration will mark the first ticker-tape parade in Knicks history.
