Newcastle have confirmed that today’s bus will depart St James’ Park at around 4:30pm to kick off the festivities.
It will then make its way down Gallowgate, turn onto Percy Street, and head onto the B1318 towards Gosforth.
The bus will stop just once, at the Town Moor, where the players will then make their way onto the stage.
After that, live music and a special lights show by Saudi Arabian events company Sela.
