The period between Thanksgiving and New Years Day is one of the most exciting times of the year in the greater Philadelphia area.

Things kick off with the big Thanksgiving Day Parade and conclude with the Mummers Parade on New Year's Day. In between there are parties and celebrations throughout the City including the big Center City Holiday Festival which runs from November 23 through January 1, 2008.

We will be adding updated information to this feature over the next few weeks as information is made available to us, so check back often.
