along with every other parade and/or large event scheduled through the end of February, and did so way back in mid-July. But the local ABC network that usually broadcasts it, will be doing a television "celebration" - https://6abc.com/6abc-thanksgiving-parade-channel-6-philadelphia-2020/6316935/

This also means no Mummers Parade on New Years Day 2021.

We are NOT going to have a repeat of 1918 here in THIS city!
