Here they come with banners flying.
The University of Michigan’s historic national title win in basketball will be marked on Saturday, April 11, with both an indoor, ticketed celebration and a parade worthy of victors in Ann Arbor.
The university released details of the festivities on its athletics website Tuesday, April 7, less than 24 hours after the Wolverines beat UConn 69-63 and claimed the program’s first national championship for men’s basketball since 1989.
Here’s what we know:
The parade through the University of Michigan’s Ann Arbor campus is set for 10 a.m. Saturday, April 11.
The parade will begin at the President’s House at 815 S. University Ave. in Ann Arbor.
From there, the parade will head down State Street and end at Yost Ice Arena, at 1116 S. State St.
Fans are being told to line South University, outside the President’s House, and to the west of the Student Union, along with the area of State Street stretching to Yost Ice Arena.
For parking, the university directed attendees to use structures around campus and specifically named those on Forest Avenue and Maynard, Thayer and Thompson streets.
Streets will close for the parade route at 8 a.m., according to the university.

Starting at 9 a.m. Thursday, April 9, the Michigan Athletic Ticket Office will email eligible students, season ticket holders and donors with 500 or more priority points and alert them to purchase tickets, according to the university.
Depending on availability afterward, the general public will get a chance to buy tickets at 5 p.m. on Thursday, April 9 at MGoBlue.com/Tickets.
