A capacity Anfield crowd watched on as captain Virgil van Dijk received the prize from club legend Alan Hansen.
Players then kept the party going until midnight at a hotel before preparing for the trophy parade.
The team bus left Allerton Maze ahead of the 15km route which finished at Blundell Street.
Thousands of fans travelled to watch, turning the streets red.
World-famous DJ Calvin Harris also made an appearance to perform on the bus.
The Scot was also part of the parade when Liverpool celebrated their FA Cup and Carabao Cup wins in 2022.
Recalling how he first got the gig while speaking to club media, Harris explained: “It started with Andy Robertson, and I can’t remember how we first got chatting.

“We bumped into each other, they were flying back to Liverpool and he was like: ‘Do you fancy doing that?’
“I was like: ‘I suppose so,’ and I think it was just an idea he had there and then.
“And then one of the senior guys took over and contacted me and made it happen.
“Then this year, Virg took the reins, captain and that. And he was more just like: “You’re doing the bus this year.’
“Okay, alright, I’ll be there!”
Crystal Palace also held a parade on Monday to celebrate their FA Cup win.
There was also a celebration at the Emirates Stadium as Arsenal Women lifted the Champions League trophy in front of a huge crowd.
