Welcome to the jungle (cue Axl Rose), where Philadelphia Eagles fans know that game day is more than just a few hours – it’s an entire day experience. There's no place like Philadelphia when it comes to celebrating our beloved birds, and with every touchdown pass, the city practically shakes with excitement.  

If you’re gearing up for Eagles game day, there’s no better place to catch the action than in one of Philadelphia’s favorite sports bars with a smorgasbord of tailgate snacks, but not without downing a beer or two first. Strap in – here’s where you need to be to start all those Eagles chants.

One little step inside any of Philadelphia’s classic dive bars, and you’ll feel an atmosphere as genuine as its regular customer’s well-worn leather jacket. While Philadelphia’s nightlife often flaunts its cool clubs and trendy rooftops, there's nothing quite like the vibe of a good ol’ dive bar. Dive bars are the soul of the city, offering an unpretentious charm where the drinks won’t break the bank and you can experience the city in its most authentic form.

Now, let’s dive (pun absolutely intended) into what really makes these local watering holes stand out.

Philadelphia, often celebrated for its constitutional history and die-hard football fans, has another side—a spooky side that just might raise the hair on your neck. This Halloween, as you wander through the city, you will find more than beautiful murals and Liberty Bell tours. In fact, some of the local bars and restaurants have a reputation for offering more than just a fantastic menu and inviting atmosphere. They're known for their ghostly residents, tales of betrayal, and whispers of the supernatural.

It’s that spooky time of year again, where the spirits come out to play and Philadelphia's nightlife scene gets a haunted makeover. Forget trick-or-treating – this year, it's all about tricked-out cocktails and boo-tiful atmospheres at some of Philadelphia's hottest Halloween-themed bars. Curious which spots made the cut? Let’s get into it!

Philadelphia, of course known for its historical roots, is also a city of restless spirits and eerie encounters waiting to be explored. Feeling brave enough this Halloween season to walk among the restless spirits and phantoms of Philadelphia?

Looks like Fishtown is right there with you, my fest friends, because the Fishtown Fall Feastivale is seeing off summer in suitable fashion. Happening on September 28th, Frankford Ave will become home to all your favorite Fishtown eats in one convenient place.

Truth bomb time: I, a proud Philadephian of over ten years, had never wandered the hallowed halls of some of the most historic buildings in the United States. There was something about the constant proximity of it all that made me think, “It’s always there, I’ll get to it eventually.” Well, this week changed all that. I charted a plan, booked my tickets, and made my way toward the cobblestone streets of Old City’s Historic District to learn a little something about a lot of history. Philadelphia is a city of firsts. It’s where America's story began — and a little tip from me to you?  Philadelphia’s historic landmarks like the Liberty Bell Center and Independence Hall are absolutely worth your time.

Boo! Did we scare you? Feeling brave this Halloween?

The Punk Rock Flea Market is descending upon us once more on September 13th, 14th, and 15th, and this ain't your grandma’s flea market.

If you’ve never been before, this is a place where vintage vinyl, DIY crafts, and studded jackets coexist in perfect anarchy.

Fall is tantalizingly close, and the Scarecrow Festival on September 14th is where you’ll want to be for a taste of some early-season fun. It’s not your average any-day-of-the-week stroll through Peddler’s Village—it’s a full-on fall fest with tons of activities. Peddler’s Village is one of the most charmingly adorable spots in Bucks County, and it really comes to life during the Scarecrow Festival. 

The Why: Some of you may have recently heard that Philadelphia was recently crowned America’s most walkable city by USA Today. And boy, do we Philadelphians love to win. So, in celebration of this incredible feat, the Center City District (CCD) is fully leaning into the accomplishment by bringing us Open Streets, where strollers, shoppers, and street artists reign supreme.
