GLOW in the Park: Join the Party in Fairmount Park

Are you a park champion?

The Fairmount Park Conservancy is hosting its annual young friends’ event to celebrate Philly parks! Ditch the idea of hosting “wine in the park” with your friends and class it up by having catered food trucks, a signature whiskey drink (you know I’m in for that...), live music, aerialists and a few hundred of your closest friends in West Fairmount Park.

Plus, our friends at the Bicycle Coalition are leading a FREE group ride from the Art Museum over to the party at 6 PM. With a bike valet upon arrival, transporting by 2-wheels has never been so grand.

  • What: GLOW in the Park
  • When: Thursday, October 22 from 6:30 – 9:30 PM
  • Where: Smith Memorial Arch (Right by the Please Touch Museum in West Fairmount Park)
  • Cost: $75 (includes a $35-level membership to the Conservancy)

Get all the deets and your tickets over here.

Good news: Friends of GPB can get $10 off ticket prices! Just enter the code GPBLovesParks at checkout.
