We’re new to Philly so I can’t tell if this is gonna suck but it’s cheap so we’re going anyways: https://www.eventbrite.com/e/south-sillys-april-fools-tickets-570878130857

Hey Philly - happy New Year! We’re a mid-30s couple newish to Philadelphia looking to go to our first Mummers Parade. I’ve looked through old posts but haven’t seen anything for 2023. Any tips for our first experience?

We’re taking the regional rail from West Mt Airy. Should we hop off at Suburban or Jefferson station?

I’ve read that we should move away from City Hall to escape the crowds and that the after party is on Two Street. Any other tips on where to go to watch the parade, grab a drink, get a bite to eat?

Thanks for your help and have a safe and fun weekend!

Oz. Watch it once and then never again.
