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.
The final stretch of winter festivities continues Thursday through Sunday with the last days of Winter in Franklin Square, while Black History Month wraps up with closing programs and celebrations at venues including the Museum of the American Revolution and the Hyatt Centric Rittenhouse Square Philadelphia.
Saturday brings a pair of marquee events, as the PHS Philadelphia Flower Show returns to the Pennsylvania Convention Center and the Philly Beer Fest pours samples from nearly 30 breweries.
