There are hotels in downtown Philly that are walking distance, but probably pricey. Check out Rittenhouse Square and Old City areas, in particular.

A cheaper option is South Jersey (Cherry Hill, Collingswood, etc.). There's a rail line that goes right in to center city Philly.

not along the parkway but actually on the parkway. in front of Art Museum leading down towards City Hall. Long stretch of road but not terribly wide. they have a 4th of July concert there every year (free concert) and had Live 8 there. for the free concert it hold's over 100,000 people. supposedly this festival they are keeping it to 50,000.

cherry hill is your best bet to save some money... terrible lineup though. normally i would be excited as there is always atleast 2 good bands playing.. hoping someone is added that is half decent apart from pearl jam.
I'm just flying around the other side of the world to say I love you

Sha la la la i'm in love with a jersey girl

I love you forever and forever :)

They’re not going to pay all that money in transporting their equipment across the country to play one or two shows. Small east coast tour around the Philly festival... Wait for the official announcement, then other dates to follow.


yes you would think so. Love to see them in Atlantic City in Boardwalk Hall.

Windsor Suites and the Four Seasons are the hotels right on the Parkway....there are lots within walking distance......Marriott, Crowne Plaza, Sheraton.....some others too but that is all I can think of off the top of my head


Thank you very much and to others who posted info thanks a lot. Hope to make it to this and I agree, an additional rock band wouldn't hurt!
