Watch the 2021 Mummers Parade on TV
Even though the 2021 Mummers Parade is canceled, PHL17 said it plans to bring Mummers content to Philadelphia area viewers on New Year’s Day. On January 1, 2021 starting at 9am. PHL17 will broadcast 13 hours of the best mummers footage from the last 10 years in what they are calling the Mummers Parade of the Decade. The 13-hour showcase starting at 9am will feature the highest scoring performances from each individual club of the last 10 years, interviews with Mummers captains, and a sneak peek at the Mummers documentary “For Them”.
