Philadelphia, PA -- (SBWIRE) -- 10/20/2015 -- In February of 2016, a colorful celebration will light up the dull winter scenery in the city of Philadelphia. Residents will be able to admire the vibrant costumes and listen to the catchy melodies of live performances during the 3rd Annual Mummers Mardi Gras, which will feature over 10,000 active participants. ADVENT, the premier event planning company, has been brainstorming new ideas for the production and entertainment of the much-anticipated event. The agency is currently preparing for the festive tradition, which features food trucks, silent auctions, store discounts, dancing and face painting.
ADVENT takes pride in producing and organizing the Mummers parade in Philly every year, which is part of their mission to support the city's traditions. The festivity helps raise funds for great causes, such as the Susan G. Komen® foundation. The event planners of ADVENT handle many aspects of the Mardi Gras event, from booking musical acts and producing the parade, to collecting sponsorships and managing the budget. A rain date is also scheduled to protect the valuable costumes and equipment from inclement weather.
Although the destination of the event will be announced at a later date, attendees can expect a fun-filled day complete with songs from prominent string bands and spectacular wardrobes. From 10am to 4pm, the mummers will be taking over the city to warm up the residents with delightful activities. The agency aims for yet another great event turnout in 2016.

About Mummers Mardi Gras
ADVENT first produced Mummers Mardi Gras in 2014 with the support of numerous sponsors and entertainment. The event was developed to keep the Mummers in the spotlight throughout the year, and create a new tradition in the process. The 2015 event was celebrated down Main Street in Manayunk, where families flocked to see the parade and performances of their favorite string bands.
