Philadelphia events

Few cities can claim the level of historic and cultural significance that The City of Brotherly Love can, and it shows. When you set foot in the same town as the Liberty Bell, you can be sure you're in the presence of truly great entertainment, whether you're looking for storied sports franchises or the best that music and culture have to offer.

Philadelphia venues

Much like the city of Philadelphia itself, the music scene here goes far and deep, encompassing a multitude of genres. On the classical end of the spectrum, there's the world-famous Philadelphia Orchestra. The city is also known for its contributions to the development of the hip-hop genre as well as serving as a hub for the burgeoning indie music scene. These smaller, up-and-coming indie bands perform regularly at a constellation of hip venues such as Boot & Saddle and Union Transfer. Catch performances by major touring acts at popular Philadelphia concert venues such as BB&T Pavilion, Festival Pier or the Fillmore Philadelphia.

Looking for something extra sophisticated? Philadelphia's Academy of Music is home to the Pennsylvania Ballet, the Opera Company of Philadelphia and the Philly Pops, and it also serves as a base for touring musical theatre and dance acts.

Sports fans can flock to Citizens Bank Park to see the Phillies at bat or mosey on over to Lincoln Financial Field, home of the Philadelphia Eagles, the city's football team.
