WE are back! A sea of sky blue greeted Coventry City’s Championship-winning heroes as the city came together to celebrate the club’s return to the Premier League on Bank Holiday Monday (May 4).
Players and management took to an open-top bus to bring the celebrations into the heart of the community, taking in Holbrooks, Foleshill, Spon End and Earlsdon.
Along the way, fans gathered, celebrated and shared the moment as the parade passed pubs, community hubs and residential streets.
Festivities then moved to War Memorial Park, where 50,000 fans gathered for the We Are Back: Live one-day music festival, headlined by The Enemy, Tom Grennan and Panjabi MC.
The celebrations peaked when the promotion-winning players and staff took to the stage to lift the Championship trophy one more time.
