The Mummers
The 2021 Mummers Parade is Canceled Due to COVID-19 restrictions.
For 120 years, Philadelphia has rang in the new year with a festive celebration, The Mummers Parade.
More than 10,000 men, women, and children in lavish, glittering costumes do the "Mummers Strut" down Broad Street, stopping to perform at three performance areas along the way as part of a fierce competition.
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.
