Newcastle are gearing up for a spectacular celebration of their 2025 Carabao Cup triumph at the end of March, with floods of supporters set to flood the streets of Tyneside. Plans for a trophy parade are moving forward, following constructive discussions with Newcastle City Council and the Northumbria Police.
The club has now confirmed Saturday, March 29, as the date when the city will come alive with festivities dedicated to the fans. United’s stars, coaching staff, and officials will all be part of the procession, making it a collective festivity to commemorate everyone’s hard work. The Geordie party, which commenced immediately in London and continued back home, was somewhat paused due to the international break that saw several Newcastle players jet off across the world for national duties.
Players like Alexander Isak, Bruno Guimaraes, Joelinton, Dan Burn, Tino Livramento, and Anthony Gordon were called up for international duty, while others travelled to Saudi Arabia for training in more temperate climes.
There is no match for Newcastle until their face-off against Brentford in the Premier League on April 2. With the team having bowed out of the FA Cup courtesy of Brighton, they have found the perfect slot to conduct their victory march.
A teaser was dropped by the club on social media Monday afternoon—presenting an intriguing graphic captioned “BUSY?” as they heralded the impending full disclosure of the event details.
The Newcastle squad celebrated well into the night in London, with their Carabao Cup victory in hand, before returning to Tyneside on Monday afternoon.
However, not all players could join the festivities due to international commitments, including Burn, who was named man of the match.
Eddie Howe, when quizzed about the team’s celebratory plans, remarked enthusiastically: “There has to be a big celebration. I certainly will be encouraging it, which is very rare for me, usually I’m the other way. We have to celebrate, hopefully with our supporters, with everyone that’s waited so long.”
He further acknowledged the constraints posed by the international break, adding: “It is difficult as it’s international duty. Players will be going off here, there and everywhere. There won’t be long to spend together but hopefully it will be really enjoyable.”
