When is Lionesses trophy parade? Full details and date for England Euro 2025 party
Euro 2025 final: The Lionesses celebrate as they lift trophy
England fans will get the chance to celebrate their European champions at an event in London next week. The Lionesses won Euro 2025 after a penalty shootout victory over Spain.
Sarina Wiegman's side were seeking redemption against Spain following their defeat in the World Cup final two years ago. However, they found themselves trailing after Mariona Caldentey scored a goal past Hannah Hampton in the first half.
England equalised 12 minutes into the second half thanks to Alessia Russo's strike. Despite both teams' efforts, neither could secure a win before extra time.
The additional period also ended without a decisive goal, leading to a penalty shootout. Hampton made two crucial saves during the shootout, and Chloe Kelly delivered the winning kick. They will now get a parade to celebrate on Tuesday - and here are all the details.
When is the event?
Following England's memorable win on Sunday night, there will be a homecoming celebration event in central London on Tuesday July 29.
What activities are planned?
There will be an open-top bus procession along The Mall, which will start at 12:10pm, culminating with a staged ceremony at the Queen Victoria Memorial in front of Buckingham Palace starting at approximately 12:30pm. The ceremony event will be hosted by Alex Scott.
Is the event on TV?
The celebration event will be broadcast live across the BBC, ITV and Sky between 12:00pm and 1:00pm.
What have the FA said?
FA Chief Executive, Mark Bullingham, said: "Our history-making Lionesses are Champions of Europe for the second successive time, and have become the first England Senior team in history to win a tournament overseas. We are so proud of all of the players, Sarina and the support team who have all been part of this incredible achievement.
"They have all worked unbelievably hard and we know the nation shares our pride. The victory celebration in London on Tuesday will give England fans an opportunity to celebrate with the players, and be part of history. We've had amazing support from our fans both in Switzerland and at home throughout the tournament, and we look forward to celebrating together and creating some lifelong memories."
Have the Lionesses ever had a celebration event in the past?
Three years ago, following their Euro 2022 success, the England players were honoured with a trophy parade during a celebration event in Trafalgar Square.
In that tournament, Wiegman guided her team to a 2-1 victory over Germany in the final, with Kelly scoring the winning goal in extra time.

Williamson believes England's 'vulnerability' aided Euro 2025 victory
The Lionesses came back from a goal down to draw 1-1 with world champions Spain at St. Jakob Park, before defeating them 3-1 on penalties. It saw Williamson lift her second European title as England captain, becoming the only senior England captain to do so on foreign soil. But while buzzwords like resilience and a never-say-die attitude have followed their tournament trajectory, the 28-year-old suggests it was the willingness of her side to open themselves up to a belief in their own ability that proved the real key to success. 'You can have all of those words, and sport has all of those words circulating all the time and then you have people that are brave and put that into action and decide that you're going to go for it,' Williamson explained. 'You leave yourself vulnerable and all of those things. If you really, really try hard and it's not quite enough, that's an awful feeling. 'To put yourself out there like that, the reward is so great and we were brave enough to do it. I think that's the key to the team. 'Sarina [Wiegman] believes in us so much, it's hard not to believe that yourself. She said the same thing as she said before, 'We don't have to win, we want to win, and we're capable of winning so it's up to you girls,' and we did it.' Unbreakable. ✊ England had made a habit of coming back from behind, closing a two-goal deficit against Sweden in the quarter-finals before coming back from 1-0 down against both Italy and Spain. But having lost their opening match against France, England had played must-win football all from the outset and while it may not always have been pretty, they became accustomed to getting the job done. 'It was a hard-fought tournament and after our first game we looked ourselves in the mirror, we knew what we had to do, and we did it, repeatedly,' said Williamson. 'And now we're back-to-back champions and that feels good. 'Thank you to those of you who stuck with us. We'll party for you tonight if you've got work tomorrow and if not, go and enjoy yourselves.' It was club team-mate Alessia Russo who had headed England level, after Mariona Caldentey gave Spain the lead after 25 minutes. A resolute defensive display from Williamson and co kept the scores level and as neither team could find a breakthrough, with Salma Paralluelo's profligacy in front of goal at times England's saving grace, it was to penalties once more. The Lionesses had found their route to success from a shootout against Sweden and would do so again, despite not having favoured penalty takers Russo or Georgia Stanway on the pitch. Instead captain Williamson was one of those to step up, and while she saw her penalty saved by Cata Coll, Chloe Kelly did the bidding to make England Euro 2025 champions. 'I said, 'Really?! I made the cut?'' said Williamson on being picked to take a penalty. 'I struggled the back end of the tournament with an injury and I was very grateful to get through the game. I didn't think it was going to carry me that far, and it did. 'I hit it a little bit too low, I would have gone higher if I could do it again. But on the way back, Chloe said to me, 'Don't worry about it.' If anybody is going to tell me that in a penalty shootout, I'll take it off her.'
