Norwich City's victorious promotion winning side will parade through the city centre on Bank Holiday Monday, it can now be revealed.

After goals from Vrancic and Stiepermann sealed the points the Canaries needed to guarantee their return to the top flight, the details of what promises to be a promotion party have been announced.

Norwich City players, staff and the board will take part in a civic reception at Norwich City Council on the morning of Monday, May 6, followed by a two-bus parade through the city centre, past thousands of cheering fans.

The celebration will start outside City Hall at 9am where BT Sport host and Canaries supporter Jake Humphrey will be compering talks with various City players and coaching staff.

Memories of a remarkable season will be relived on the balcony of City Hall before the players and staff gather to celebrate their promotion success.

The players and club staff will then make their way to two buses, which will set off Dencora House in Theatre Street.

The parade will make its way past the Theatre Royal and The Forum, turn into Red Lion Street and go past Norwich Castle via Castle Meadow.

The coaches will then turn left into Upper King Street and Tombland, passing the cathedral as they turn into Palace Street where the parade will end close to the Wig and Pen pub.

Club bosses hope fans will then head to Carrow Road to continue the celebration at the testimonial for former Canaries Wes Hoolahan and Russell Martin.

Ben Kensell, chief operating officer at Norwich City Football Club, said: 'We're hoping it will be a similar atmosphere to one of our match days at Carrow Road. Why would we not want to celebrate such a fantastic achievement together?

'We have built up such momentum and that's down to the fans, the players, the staff and the board.

'We want it to be a day of celebration. We want to fill the city with Norwich City supporters, so they can show their appreciation to the players and the players can show their appreciation to the fans.'

Mr Kensell said the timing meant it was also a good opportunity for fans to stick around in the city before heading to the Wes Hoolahan/Russell Martin testimonial match at Carrow Road for 3pm.
