Like cheese steaks and the Liberty Bell, sports are taken very seriously in Philadelphia. If you’ve ever bought Philadelphia Phillies tickets, Flyers tix or 76ers tickets and gone to the game, you know what I mean. Philadelphia’s got a rich history and tradition when it comes to sports. And if you want to do something fun besides going to a game, you can check out awesome concerts and plays in Philly too. I found a good place to learn about all kinds of current and upcoming Philadelphia entertainment, check it out. Also, you can go online here to find Wachovia tickets and other Philadelphia venues and scan the lists of upcoming concerts. You may be able to catch acts like Janet Jackson, Mariah Carey, Madonna, Dave Matthews, the Dixie Chicks, Paul Simon, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Soul2Soul: Tim Mcgraw & Faith Hill, Tony Bennett, American Idol Philadelphia and Eric Clapton and Robert Cray.
Ok, so you’ve just been to a Phillies baseball game, and been a couple of cool concerts recently and you’re looking for something different to do, now what? Philadelphia has a thriving theater scene too. Lion King Philadelphia, Wicked the Musical in Philadelphia, Cirque Du Soleil - “Quidam”, and Phantom Of The Opera are all showing in Philadelphia this year. Find any information you want on Philadelphia sports music and theater events here, it’s pretty extensive.
I guess the favorite thing I like to do in Philadelphia, at least in the summer, is to go to a few Phillies baseball games. I like catching a series between the Phillies and the New York Mets, the Milwaukee Brewers, the Los Angeles Dodgers, the Atlanta Braves, or against the Washington Nationals. And I totally hope to see the Phillies in the playoffs this year too.
