Philadelphia Events

The city of brotherly love has long been one of America’s foremost cities and, in fact, played a crucial role in the founding of the United States of America. Founded way back in 1682 by William Penn, a century later Philadelphia proved to be the meeting area for the Continental Congress as they first signed the Declaration of Independence on July 4, 1776, and then when the Constitution was ratified on Sept. 17, 1787. Philadelphia even served as our fledgling nation’s capital for several years. Since that time, Philadelphia has continued to grow as a center of industry, shipping, manufacturing, finance, higher education and health care. As the center of the fifth largest metropolitan area in the county, the Philadelphia metropolitan area, which also covers the Delaware Valley, is home to more than six million residents. Tourists continue to flock to Philadelphia for everything from spotting the Liberty Bell to having a famous cheesesteak sandwich. Make sure you flock to GoTickets for your Philadelphia tickets.

Philadelphia Sports Tickets
Like several other major American cities, Philadelphia is home to teams in all four major league sports, which means Philadelphia sports tickets can be obtained to witness a game pretty much year round. The oldest sports team in Philadelphia is definitely the MLB’s Philadelphia Phillies, which was founded in 1883 and currently plays in Citizens Bank Park. Back in 2008, the Philadelphia Phillies won a World Series Championship, their first in nearly three decades, which made Phillies tickets best sellers around town. The Philadelphia Eagles of the National Football League have repeatedly made it to the playoffs in recent years. Their home base is Citizens Bank Park. One of the most famous hockey teams in the United States is the Philadelphia Flyers of the NHL. The team plays at Wells Fargo Center, which is also the home of the National Basketball Association’s Philadelphia 76ers.
