Take a walk along the waterfront at Penn’s Landing and you may find some of the best shows and entertainment in the city, from Screening Under the Stars to the Olympic-sized RiverRink. This landmark site provides a perfect music and festival venue that hosts several concerts and performances throughout the year.

Nestled along the Schuylkill River, the aptly named Schuylkill River Park provides a large municipal space for outdoor recreation. From the soccer fields, baseball diamond, tennis and basketball courts to the special section designated for dogs, this recreational center offers plenty of activities. Eventually, construction will connect this park to the popular Schuylkill River Trail.

See the Philly NHL team fly across the ice in the Wells Fargo Center. The Philadelphia Flyers won two Stanley Cups during the 1970s and continue to rake in conference and division titles. Wear orange, black and white when you join the crowd and root for the Flyers as they take on their opponents—especially their bitter cross-state rivals, the Pittsburgh Penguins!
