Special Walk, special time - Holiday Markets in Center City

Special Thursday Walk:  Holiday Markets in Center City
Thursday, Dec. 8, 10:30 AM
Meet at East Falls Septa Station for 10:39 train to Suburban Station


The forecast is for mild weather this Thursday.  Join us as we take the train to Suburban Station and explore the two holiday markets near City Hall.

In Dilworth Park, the  Made in Philadelphia Holiday Market will feature a large variety of local artisans, designers, crafters, and jewelers offering their unique, holiday-inspired handmade goods and gifts.  Christmas Village in Philadelphia, a German-style Christmas market, has over a hundred vendors offering jewelry, crafts, Christmas decorations, food, and more. The market spreads from Love Park through the City Hall Courtyard, and beyond.

When we meet at the East Falls train station at 10:30 (don't forget your SEPTA Key Card!), we'll review transportation options for return trips to East Falls, either by rail or by the 32 bus to Henry Avenue. With so much to see, we'll most likely break up into small groups as we wander. Some may want to experience the holiday show at Comcast Center, every hour on the hour.

Walks may be rescheduled or canceled altogether, depending on the weather. If you'd like to receive emails with weather updates and special destinations, send a request to  Roger Marsh, MarshRRR@gmail.com

Accessibility: Lots of walking! At the East Falls Station, it's a big step up into the train, and stairs in the underpass. There are elevators to street level in Suburban Station.

Everyone welcome.  Pay your own expenses.  No registration required.
