Philadelphia Mummers Parade
01/01/2011
Place: South Broad Street to City Hall
The tradition of Philadelphia Mummery started in the late 17th century as a continuation of the Old World customs of ushering in the New Year. Mummery in America is as unique to Philadelphia as Mardi Gras is to New Orleans.
