Per Merriam-Webster: one who goes merrymaking in disguise during festivals. Or there’s this: relates to miming, masking, and folk play.

a mummer used to be like a street performer. they would do little skits to mock royalty or visiting dignitaries. it's like an actor but with satire

Mummer: a neighborhood person that belongs to a neighborhood club that rivals other neighborhood clubs. One club can win the trophy (there are divisions). Purpose: Ring in prosperity in the New Year

The Mummers come from Swedish/English/Egypt! Started as a celebration of the New Year! People would wear costumes and go door to door asking for food and alcohol. They would also shoot guns in the air

Try being in a Mummer family and spending your childhood running around the Philadelphia center not being watched. Absolute chaos

mummering is a folksy Christmas time tradition in Newfoundland Canada. Where you dress up and go to neighbours and friends. Knock on their door....

Debbie Ford375 :
It started with people who came to Philly from different countries and they celebrated with their costumes and music for the neighbors. Then it grew to comics and wenches to expand the parade.

Mummering in Newfoundland 🇨🇦 has been around since the 19th century. It was banned in 1860 when a fisherman was killed but it is quite big now for a small place (pop. Less than 600,000.)

Gary Pisarek :
Short answer: The Mummers trace their roots back to traditions of early European settlers as well as African culture. They would go door to door in fancy dress & make up to celebrate the New Year.
