tripadvisorNice park in Philadelphia complete with a fountain, a carousel, miniature golf and concessions. We had a lovely visit in the early evening.
MoreThe whole center of Philly is very walkable and this was on our route around town for our day trip.
MoreI love this park but the number of times that workers leaf blow dirt around while people are in the park is spreading illnesses. They could at least wait until after 12 noon when all the children leave for lunch/nap.
MoreEvery year, this festival surprises me with something new. I first brought my kids when they were younger, and now coming back as an adult, I realized it still hits differently every time. The displays are breathtaking—perfect for plenty of photos and videos that you’ll treasure. They even have a grown-ups section, and let me just say, the drinks were definitely on point! ✨ I also loved browsing the unique handcrafted items—so many beautiful pieces, I wanted to bring them all home. From family outings to adult nights, this event delivers unforgettable experiences year after year. Can’t wait to see what they bring next time!
MoreWow! We stayed in Philadelphia the night before a scheduled surgery at a downtown hospital and we wanted to spend some time at night exploring the city. We decided to go to the festival and we could not have been happier. The festival was AWESOME! The displays were amazing. They were creative and bright and the colors were eye catching for sure. The displays were all very well organized within the park and offered something for everyone (and tons of great chances for fun pictures)! This is something for any one of any age to go and check out. You can see most of the display within 2 hours or so... or you can stay even longer if you want. We are so happy we checked out this seasonal event!
