The New York Knicks are taking over the Canyon of Heroes.
After clinching their first NBA championship in 53 years, the Knicks will be honored with a ticker-tape parade in Lower Manhattan on Thursday, June 18. The celebration is scheduled to kick off at 10 a.m. ET near Battery Park before traveling north along Broadway through the famed Canyon of Heroes and ending at City Hall, where the team will be honored in a ceremony. Alicia Keys is set to close out the ceremony with a performance of “Empire State of Mind,” around 1 p.m. ET.
The Knicks parade will be broadcast on several local channels such as ABC7 New York, NBC 4 New York, CBS News New York, Fox 5 New York and MSG Network. But the best way for cable-cutters to stream the parade live online is through a live TV streamer such as DirecTV, Sling TV and Hulu + Live TV.
However, local affiliates are often only available in select markets so if you’re outside of New York, you’ll want to sign up for a VPN to access the stream. ExpressVPN currently offers a free trial.
