Mummering and mummery parades are a European folk tradition still popular in Newfoundland and parts of Great Britain.  And now... mummery has come to Nanaimo!

Hosted by NYPT, it is a costume parade through Bowen Park (parade route below) for children of all ages and their families, complete with entertainment en route, followed by a short play performed by our very own Junior Performing Troupe!  Admission is free.

In addition to our Jr, Performance Troupe, all other fall term classes are invited to design mummer costumes and props ---and even create short mummer skits---- and join in on the festivities that day!

 

Last year, for our first parade, the weather was perfect -- sunny and crisp. (Check out our photo gallery for more pictures!)

 

We hope to see you at this year's parade in December 2024!
