Mummering: A Newfoundland Christmas Tradition

Posted on December 24, 2009 • 1 minutes • 130 words

The holidays are notorious for bringing out some strange traditions. Whether it’s something as simple as leaving some cookies and milk out for the big guy, or something as painful as watching your uncles out-drink one another. Traditions come and go, the beauty of it is that they’re all in good fun. However I’m sure that one of the weirdest & funniest Christmas traditions has got to be “Mummering” or “Jannying”. I just recently learned of this insane tradition, so rather than explaining too much, you should head on over to Candice Does the World , and check out her post on the Newfoundlander’s Weirdest Christmas Tradition . As a Newfy she should be able to explain it a heckuva lot better than myself. Merry Christmas / Happy Holidays Folks

Purchase our eBook: 150 Things To Do In Canada

Available on Amazon Kindle!

I'm pleased to announce my first ebook is available on Amazon Kindle. In honour of Canada's 150th Anniversary, I wanted to highlight my favourite things to do in each province and territory across Canada.

This ebook is super affordable as this is my first attempt at an ebook, and I'm hoping it will encourage people to flip through it before their summer travels across Canada. Please leave a positive review if you find it useful! I'm pulling late nights at the moment working on another ebook which is set to release before summer. Stay tuned!
