Check out all the best sights and sounds from the #Chiefs’ Super Bowl LVIII victory parade in Kansas City on Wednesday.

The Kansas City Chiefs are Super Bowl champions once more, and fans in western Missouri turned out in full force for the team’s victory parade on Wednesday as celebrations of their latest championship commenced in earnest.

Few occasions in Kansas City are more festive than the immense gatherings to celebrate newly won titles, and Wednesday’s parade was no different.

From the raucous cheers of the Chiefs’ faithful fans to the antics of the team’s players who joyously passed around the Lombardi Trophy while traversing the throngs of parade attendees in downtown Kansas City in massive double-decker buses.

Pictures and videos of the parade flooded social media on Wednesday as fans in attendance documented their experience of celebrating the Chiefs’ back-to-back Super Bowl championships.

Check out some of the top sights and sounds from the parade below to get a glimpse of the massive celebration that occurred downtown on Wednesday morning.

LOOK: Union Station lit up overnight for Red Wednesday

Union Station was lit up in #Chiefs red overnight to celebrate the start of Kansas City’s 2023 season.

The Kansas City Chiefs are among the most accomplished teams in the NFL, and with Patrick Mahomes under center, should have a good chance to beat the Detroit Lions on Thursday in the first game of the 2023 regular season.

In keeping with tradition, Kansas City will adorn itself in all nature of red on Wednesday ahead of the Chiefs’ highly anticipated Week 1 matchup. Though the pseudo-holiday is usually observed on Friday ahead of the team’s usual Sunday kickoffs, fans in Western Missouri are making an exception to the rule given the primetime mid-week matchup.

As such, Union Station in downtown Kansas City was lit up in red on Tuesday night to celebrate the occasion, which produced a particularly stunning picture that was featured by the Chiefs’ social media team.

This perfectly set scene will be captivating for all who drive by or otherwise observe the nearly century-old building overnight and should be a good omen for the Chiefs as they head into their tilt against Detroit without Chris Jones.
