Mummers Parade
From Wikipedia
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mummers_Parade
.
The Mummers Parade is held each New Year's Day in Philadelphia,
Pennsylvania, USA. It is believed to be the oldest folk festival in the
United States.[1]
.
Local clubs (usually called "New Years Associations") compete in one of
four categories (comics, fancies, string bands, and fancy brigades). They
prepare elaborate costumes and moveable scenery, which take months to
complete. This is done in clubhouses many of which are on or near 2nd
Street (called "Two Street" by some local residents)[2] in the Pennsport
neighborhood of the city's South Philadelphia section which also serve as
social gathering places for members. Numerous Irish and Italian immigrants
once populated South Philadelphia, forming the Mummers and parade goers.
As these groups have begun to be replaced by Asian and Hispanic
immigrants, local ties to the parade have weakened.[3]
.
The parade has been broadcast since 1993 on WPHL-TV,[4] which has live
streamed the event on its website since 2011. After a national campaign to
get the parade nationally televised,[5] an edited two-hour broadcast of
the parade was picked up by WGN America and WGN-TV; the broadcast debuted
January 3, 2009.

History
The parade traces back to mid-17th-century roots, blending elements from
Swedish, Finnish, Irish, English, German, and other European heritages, as
well as African heritage.[6][7] The parade is related to the Mummers Play
tradition from England, Ireland, Scotland and Wales.[8] Revivals of this
tradition are still celebrated annually in South Gloucestershire, England
on Boxing Day and in parts of Ireland on St. Stephen's Day and also in the
Canadian province of Newfoundland and Labrador around Christmas.
