As February turns into March, Philadelphia’s event calendar is packed with activities that offer a first taste of spring and a busy stretch of things to do across the city.

East Passyunk Restaurant Week gets things started Monday, with more than 20 South Philly spots offering special prix-fixe menus and limited-time deals. On Wednesday, Midtown Village welcomes the opening of the new Philly Pride Visitor Center, a resource and gathering space for LGBTQ+ travelers, residents and allies.
