President Joe Biden will welcome the Super Bowl champion Kansas City Chiefs to the White House in Washington, D.C. on Monday, June 5, the team announced.

The Chiefs defeated the Philadelphia Eagles 38-35 in Super Bowl LVII back in February. President Biden previously congratulated the team in a tweet on February 12, extending an invitation to the White House, but without a date on it.

“Congrats to the Kansas City Chiefs on their Super Bowl win and to MVP Patrick Mahomes on leading the team to victory,” Biden wrote. “Through injury and obstacles, you showed grit and true resilience. Looking forward to having you at the White House.”

The celebration of the team’s Super Bowl win was extended through April as Kansas City played host to the 2023 NFL draft. Now, they’ll take another victory lap in June.

They’re set to become the first NFL team to visit the White House after a Super Bowl win since the Tampa Bay Buccaneers visited in 2021. The Los Angeles Rams didn’t visit the White House in 2022.

The Chiefs also didn’t make a trip to the White House in 2019-20 due to the COVID-19 pandemic. In fact, this will be the first Kansas City team to visit the White House of their three Super Bowl-winning teams. The Super Bowl IV team did not visit the White House, Len Dawson instead fielded a call from the 37th President of the United States, Richard Nixon.
