Getting to the Parade |
||||||||
Many roads around the parade route will be closed on New Year’s Day, so the best option to get to the parade is to take SEPTA into the city. On New Year’s Day, buses, trains, and trolleys will operate on a Sunday Schedule. You can view this Google Map for additional transportation options.

Staying Warm and Using the Bathroom |
||||||||
There will be port-a-potties along the parade route, but a great place to get warm and use the bathroom is at the Kimmel Center. The Kimmel Center for the Performing Arts opens its doors for the 14th consecutive year for its annual FREE New Year’s Day Celebration. The campus will be alive with holiday sights and sounds as patrons are invited to warm up indoors to enjoy panoramic views of the Mummers Parade, performances, and activities from 10:00 a.m. until 5:00 p.m. The Kimmel Center is located at: 300 S Broad St, Philadelphia, PA 19102 | ||||||||
Where to Eat? |
||||||||
There will be Food trucks, and other attractions at the Philadelphia High School for Creative and Performing Arts, located at 901 S. Broad Street. Also, the Wawa at 201 Broad Street, Philadelphia, PA 19107 will be open for a quick bite to eat. Many of the local restaurants and bars around the parade route will be open on New Years Day. Unfortunately, the Reading Terminal Market is CLOSED on New Year’s Day. | ||||||||
My daughter is 12 years old and is fascinated with the south Philly Vikings. I been taking her to the parade since she been 2 years old and every time they won took her to their serenade. This year she has shown a real interest in what’s involved in being part of the south Philly Vikings. Will there be a serenade this year? You guys a great you win mostly every year.

Thank you Mr. Mummer. A lot of good information for an out-of-towner visiting Philadelphia for the first time. I am told that the parade is a wild experience. Can’t wait.
