Bath Rugby Celebrate First Premiership Title Since 1996 With Citywide Victory Parade

Bath Rugby celebrated a historic victory after winning the Premiership title for the first time in 29 years by narrowly defeating Leicester Tigers 23-21 at Twickenham. This triumph completed a remarkable treble for Bath, having already secured the Premiership Rugby Cup and European Challenge Cup earlier in the season. Thousands of fans lined the streets of Bath to cheer the team during an open-top bus parade through the city, culminating in a ticketed Champions Party at The Recreation Ground featuring live music and player interviews. Key moments included Finn Russell's impressive sprint and assist for a try, with captain Ben Spencer and Russell both expressing pride and highlighting the strong team unity and city support. The celebrations were widely welcomed by fans, who appreciated seeing their team honored after such a successful season. Proceeds from the ticketed party will support the Bath Rugby Foundation, benefiting challenged and vulnerable children in the community.
