Egypt’s capital Cairo is gearing up for a first-of-its-kind “Pharaohs Golden Parade” that will transfer the ancient Egyptian royal mummies from the Egyptian Museum in Tahrir to the National Museum of Egyptian Civilization (NMEC).
 
Set to take place on April 3, 2021, the parade will feature 22 mummies, 18 kings, and four queens, dating back to the 17th, 18th, 19th, and 20th dynasties. 
 
The parade will take place against the backdrop of fireworks and to the tune of honorary salvos. A cavalcade will also accompany the mummies.
