A jazzy time is to be had in Philadelphia – if you know where to look. Beyond the dive bars, dance clubs, and beer gardens lies a world where saxophones wail, bass lines walk, and that soulful piano pouring out honeyed melodies that speak to your very soul. These spots prove that live jazz can be cool, modern, and—dare we say it—even sexy. Check out where you can sway to the rhythms that make life in Philly oh so sweet.

If you love a good cocktail and have an affinity for unique experiences, pull up a bar stool because we've got some insights into a one-of-a-kind kinda night out. Each spot welcomes you into its own distinct world – a hidden speakeasy, a wizarding world, or a go-go bar are all on the table and within a mile (if that!) of each other here.
