LAS VEGAS (KTNV) — Road closures for the Vegas Golden Knights Stanley Cup victory parade are expected to begin Saturday afternoon.
The parade is scheduled to start at 7 p.m. at the intersection of Las Vegas Boulevard and Flamingo Road.
According to Las Vegas Metropolitan Police, road closures in preparation for the parade will start as early as 4:30 p.m.
Las Vegas Boulevard will be shut down from Flamingo Road to Tropicana Avenue, "to include all private drives in between," a public information officer stated in a news release on Friday.
"Due to safety concerns, no viewing of the parade will be allowed on the pedestrian bridges and no chairs of any type will be allowed on the parade route and in Toshiba Plaza," police added.
Authorities are anticipating large crowds and advised the crowd size could make movement from the parade route to Toshiba Plaza difficult.
Earlier this week, police advised that pedestrian bridges along the parade route would be shut down during the event, and shared a list of prohibited items.
