After an unforgettable journey in the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2024, which ended with a glorious title win, the Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) are all set to make history with a unique Trophy Tour. This special celebration will see the defending champions take the coveted IPL trophy across multiple cities in India, giving fans a chance to be part of their victory.
For the first time ever, an IPL team is organizing a Trophy Tour that goes beyond its home city. The goal is simple: to connect with fans across the country and let them experience the joy of KKR’s triumph up close. The tour will kick off on February 14 in Guwahati and wrap up in Kolkata on March 16, covering nine cities in total. The cities include Guwahati, Bhubaneswar, Jamshedpur, Ranchi, Gangtok, Siliguri, Patna, Durgapur, and Kolkata.
This initiative is all about celebrating the fans who have stood by KKR through thick and thin. The franchise wants to thank its loyal supporters by inviting them to join the Knight Riders’ family in this special celebration. Fans will get a chance to see the trophy, click pictures, and create unforgettable memories.
To make the experience even more exciting, KKR has planned fun cricket-themed activities like Cricket Rock Paper Scissors and Cricket Pong. Visitors can also win amazing prizes and take home exclusive KKR merchandise, making the event even more special.
Binda Dey, Group CMO of Knight Riders Sports, shared her excitement about the tour: “We’re thrilled to bring the Trophy Tour to our fans in Eastern India. Last season, due to unavoidable reasons, we couldn’t celebrate our victory with a march in Kolkata. Our fans are like family to us—they’ve supported us through every high and low. This tour is our way of giving back to them and sharing the trophy that their love and support helped us win.”
