The Experience

One of Philadelphia’s most popular spring festivals, the annual Rittenhouse Row Spring Festival attracts more than 50,000 people from across the region to Rittenhouse Square for one awesome Saturday each May.

Walnut Street is closed off to traffic (between Broad and 19th Streets) and the Festival takes over one of Center City’s coolest neighborhoods.

A festival of food, music, fashion, arts and entertainment, the Rittenhouse Row Spring Festival is one of the first signs of summer in Philadelphia.
