Systems, devices, and techniques described herein relate to parallel routing of data packets prior to and/or during a handoff event for a user equipment (UE) between cells. An example method includes determining, by a network device, that a UE is about to participate in a handoff event while the network device is transmitting data packets associated with a service to a cell currently in communication with the UE. The network device may determine a destination cell in which the UE will be performing the handoff with and may replicate the data packets and send the data packets to both of the current cell and the destination cell in parallel. When the UE performs the handoff with the destination cell, the data packets required for receiving the service will already be present and the UE will not experience any interruption in the service prior to and/or during the handoff.
