(HARTFORD, CT) – Governor Ned Lamont today announced that due to a high chance of rain in the forecast, the victory parade and rally in downtown Hartford celebrating the NCAA championship win by the UConn women’s basketball team is being rescheduled to Sunday, April 13, 2025, at 1:00 p.m.
The celebration had previously been scheduled for Saturday morning. The parade route and rally location remain the same.
The parade will begin at 1:00 p.m. and will step off at the State Capitol building at the intersection of Trinity Street and Elm Street. From there, it will proceed north on Trinity Street, go through the Soldiers and Sailors Memorial Arch, turn right (east) onto Jewell Street, turn left (north) onto Trumbull Street, and end at the intersection of Asylum Street and Trumbull Street.
The rally will begin at approximately 1:30 p.m. and will be held outside of the main entrance of the XL Center on Trumbull Street, where the players, coaches, and other guests will be invited to give speeches.
As with other victory celebrations that have been held in previous years, this parade and rally are being funded by private donations through sponsorship opportunities. No state or city funding is being used for this event.
To sponsor this event, businesses may choose from several sponsorship levels up to $10,000. Those interested in sponsorship opportunities should contact Chip McCabe at the Hartford Business Improvement District as soon as possible at 860-770-0788 or [
