    The Mummer's Parade takes place each year on New Year's Day in Philadelphia. It is rooted in tradition from the early 1800's. This new year the parade will march down Market St, heading west and around City Hall counter-clockwise to the judges stand. It runs all day from, 8:00 AM to 7:00 PM.

    The participants dress in elaborate costumes, in different divisions:

    Comics
    Fancies
    String Bands
    Fancies Brigade
