Staying Here

There is too much festival to fit into one day so why not spend the night? Better yet, stay the whole weekend and check out a few of Philadelphia’s many cultural attractions and activities.

Run up the legendary “Rocky Steps” at the Philadelphia Museum of Art then step inside and take in one of the world’s great collections of art. Sample a famous Philly cheesesteak along South Street or savor the flavors of some of the city’s many renowned fine dining spots. Hit the campaign trail with a special exhibit at the National Constitution Center or visit historic landmarks that are part of Quest for Freedom’s self-guided Underground Railroad tours. Live the life of a pirate at the Franklin Institute’s summer exhibit called . . . Pirates!  And don your most stylish threads and dance the night away at Old City’s hip late-night clubs. See, you really do need an entire weekend!
