The Experience

The Mummers Parade
The Mummers Parade kicks off from City Hall, and proceeds south on Broad Street to Washington Avenue. Thousands of parade goers line the street to watch the revelry, cheer on the performances, and celebrate the New Year.

Fancy Brigade Shows
After the Fancy Brigades finish the parade route, they head to the Pennsylvania Convention Center to put on two elaborate Broadway-style performances for ticket holders. Shows are at 11:30 a.m. and 5 p.m..

The Mummers are comprised of 40+ organized clubs, categorized into five divisions that each have their own performance specialty, and compete against each other for bragging rights, the Comics, Wench Brigades, Fancies, String Bands, and Fancy Brigades.
