Spend New Year’s Day with Philadelphians MC!

Mummer’s Parade: 10am-5pm, Broad Street. Philly’s one of a kind New Year’s celebration with costumes, string bands, comics, wenches, and more drag than even we can handle! Don’t forget to bundle up, cuz baby it’s cold outside!

Open House: Noon-3pm, William Way Community Center, 1315 Spruce Street. Only one block off Broad – pop in and warm up with hot soup, coffee, tea, hot chocolate, sandwiches, music, and all the hot steamy brotherhood you can handle! Check in and pick up your tickets to the Finale show here.

Fancy Brigades Finale: 5pm-8pm, PA Convention Center, 1101 Arch Street. Picture this – ten crews presenting breath-taking sets, props, costumes, pyrotechnics, and choreography as they compete for bragging rights of being the best in town. Starting last year each crew got their very own drag queen from local darling Brittany Lynn’s Drag Mafia to introduce their performances with a number of her own!

ALL THIS FOR ONLY $25! (plus online processing fee of $1.05 per ticket)

Hotel room are available in the area but are not being offered as part of registration for this event. If you wish to stay overnight be sure to make your reservations as early as possible.

This is an all-weather event!

In case of bad weather the outdoor parade and the open house may be postponed until the weekend, but the Fancy Brigade Finale will go on as scheduled since it’s indoors. The last time the parade was postponed was in 2003, and that was the first time in 13 years. It doesn’t happen often. Since you’re primarily buying a ticket to the indoor finale show, there will be no refunds due to bad weather. MUM’S THE WORD, and the show, MUST GO ON!!!

Operation Tea Room 2012

For thirty-eight years Philadelphians MC, Philadelphia’s longest-running gay leather club, has always made fundraising for local and national charities a priority. Since 1974 the club has raised over $55,000 for non-profits in the Philadelphia area and beyond.

In 2012 the club decided to focus their efforts on one special project, a unique endeavor that was affectionately code named Operation Tea Room.

The William Way Community Center is open seven days a week and is used by over 2,500 members of Philadelphia’s LGBT community every month. The building is architecturally spectacular, with more of it being improved and refurbished each year.

To support the ongoing restoration of the building, Philadelphians MC decided to sponsor the renovation of a restroom, after which it was to be re-christened and known forever after as The Philadelphians MC Restroom.

This restroom, located in the side stairwell near the ballroom, had definitely seen better days. It desperately needed a facelift. The club met with the center’s Executive Director, Chris Bartlett, to pitch the idea of Operation Tea Room.

Mr. Bartlett was very excited and somewhat amused about the project, while members of the club were thrilled to help insure that future LGBT generations will always have a warm and safe place to go to the bathroom.

Throughout the spring and summer of 2012, Philadelphians MC held numerous fundraisers to reach the goal of fully funding this historic renovation. The first event was a fetish gear dance party on Saturday, February 11, 2012 at the Bike Stop. The second event was the club’s Kinky Karnival on Saturday, April 14.

The club pledged to raise $2500 to fund these renovations. When the final tally was done, over $3300 was raised and donated to the center. Be sure to stop by and check out the restroom the next time you feel the urge to pee.

The members of Philadelphians MC thank everyone who attended these events and helped make Operation Tea Room such a huge success, because as we all learned …

We can’t spell FLUSH without U.
