63 Things to Do in Philly This Weekend, June 28-30, 2019

The city where it all began devotes the last weekend of June to the kickoff of Fourth of July festivities.

Wawa Welcome America begins its six-day celebration of Independence with tons of things to do, including the Philly Ice Cream Scoop festival at Reading Terminal Market (Saturday), the Philadelphia’s Historic District Block Party (Sunday) and free or pay-what-you-wish admission to eight museums and attractions (Saturday and Sunday).

The Delaware River waterfront hosts free concerts this weekend from The Philadelphia Orchestra (Friday) and U.S. Army Band’s “Pershing’s Own” (Saturday), which concludes with a spectacular fireworks display.

Outdoor movies are a perfect way to end long summer days, and there are four this weekend at parks and attractions around the city, including the Wawa Welcome America inaugural Philly @ the Movies film Rocky on the steps of the Philadelphia Museum of Art (Sunday).

Philly gets revved up for the 2022 FIFA World Cup with Sunday’s Concacaf Gold Cup Quarterfinals, featuring teams from North and South America and the Caribbean.

Select concerts this weekend — including the weekend-long Phish event at BB&T Pavilion — are part of the Visit Philly Live Nation Package, offering up to $230 in free perks like hotel and concert venue parking, late checkout and more.

The easiest way to take advantage of all these fun weekend offerings is with a sleepover.
