Things to Do in Philadelphia for Your Birthday

Philadelphia, Pennsylvania is one of America’s greatest cities — and while we’re huge fans of some of the most popular tourist attractions Philly has to offer, it can be easy to get bogged down by the most popular spots. Don’t get us wrong: We think everyone should visit the Philadelphia Museum of Art and run up the Rocky Steps at least once in their lives, but there’s so much more to do while you’re in town. Philly is a melting pot full of diverse neighborhoods, storied history, and (of course) plenty of fun things to do. And, if you’re lucky enough to be in the city of brotherly love for your birthday, you’re almost guaranteed a good time. From breweries and professional sports games to historic tours, sightseeing, and much more, there are plenty of great ways to celebrate your birthday in Philadelphia. If you need a hand planning out your celebration’s itinerary, we have you covered. Check out this list of some of the best things to do for your birthday in Philadelphia.
