By Hallie Mellendorf

The Washington Nationals will return from their historic World Series win Thursday evening. The team is expected to land at 6:15 p.m. at Dulles International Airport. WTOP will be there bringing you the latest from the scene. Fans will have the chance to welcome their champions — and that World Series trophy — home. A parade is scheduled for Saturday, Nov. 2 at 2 p.m., Mayor Muriel Bowser’s office announced early Thursday morning.

The parade will start on Constitution Avenue NW at 15th Street NW, proceed east along Constitution Avenue NW and end on Pennsylvania Avenue NW at 3rd Street NW with a team rally. If fans attending the parade want to receive text alerts on safety, transit and weather, they can text “NATS” to 888-777. The mayor’s office is encouraging attendees to leave their cars at home and use public transportation, as public parking is expected to be extremely limited around the route. Those posting on social media are asked to use the hashtag #FightFinished.
