According to the old battle laws, the Milwaukee Brewers are entitled to fireworks in this manner. The Brewers, after defeating the Tampa Bay Rays in Game 5 on Wednesday night, clinched the 2026 World Series title – the first such title in franchise history – and it will soon be time to celebrate.
Speaking of which, the City of Milwaukee on Thursday announced plans for the Brewers’ championship parade, which will take place on Friday, October 30. Here are the essentials;

Milwaukee Public Schools also announced that school will be closed for all students and staff on Friday for a parade and celebration.
