Their voyage had been delayed several times. The big day was originally slated for 27 November 2020, and downtown Cairo had been re-painted, re-lit, and re-planted in anticipation.

A procession of floats carried the mummified remains of 22 pharaohs, including Egypt s most powerful ancient queen, through Cairo Saturday evening, in an eye-catching parade to a new resting place.
 
Under hefty security, the mummies were driven on floats seven kilometers (four miles) across the capital from the iconic Egyptian Museum to the new National Museum of Egyptian Civilisation.
Dubbed the Pharaohs Golden Parade , the 18 kings and four queens travelled in order, oldest first, each aboard a separate vehicle decorated in ancient Egyptian style.
