The first real summer in Philadelphia since the pandemic is here, with tons of fun things to do in the fresh, open air—and even indoors for those of you who are ready for that.
Scroll on down to find some of the best picks for things to do in Philly this week, including a host of outdoor movie options, a virtual presentation of Billy Penn’s Billies awards, and all kinds of exciting things to see and try on the local food and theater scenes.
Summer nights in the city also mean swinging in a hammock at Spruce Street Harbor Park, munching on funnel cakes at Blue Cross RiverRink Summerfest, taking a twirl around the skating rink at Dilworth Park, and picnicking with pals along the Schuylkill River at Parks On Tap. The city is yours. Get out and enjoy!
