Dilworth Park Set to Become Winter Wonderland this Season
Starting November 14th, Dilworth Park in Philadelphia's Center City will transform into a festive winter attraction. The park at the base of City Hall will welcome visitors with ice skating, holiday shopping, and cold-weather activities. Over 3.7 million people visited the space last season, making it one of the busiest stops for winter activities in the city.
The Rothman Orthopaedics Ice Rink is back with daily sessions until February 22nd, priced at $7 for children under 10 and $10 for adults, with skate rentals available for an additional $10. To make things more convenient, timed 90-minute sessions and locker rentals can be reserved online, with discounts offered for groups.
For those looking to warm up while watching a game or socializing, the Rothman Orthopaedics Cabin has been redesigned and expanded. The indoor space now features a refreshed menu, bar service, and TVs for fans. Fire pits on the terrace will also be open to all visitors, making it the perfect spot to relax.
Families can enjoy special events during the holiday season, including two Breakfast with Santa sessions on December 13th and 20th. The events will include a buffet meal, photos with Santa, and time on the ice – reservations are required.
Visitors to Dilworth Park will also have access to the Wintergarden until March 15th. This open-air space features illuminated sculptures, seasonal plants, and warm mulled wine from Chaddsford Winery available for those 21 and older.
The Made in Philadelphia Holiday Market will return through January 1st, offering a wide range of handmade goods, artwork, jewelry, skincare products, and more made in the region. For more information on hours, events, and ticketing, head to dilworthpark.org.
Dilworth Park will be open from November 14th to March 14th, with the ice rink operating until February 22nd.

that's gonna be a game changer. also, breakfast with santa sessions on dec 13th & 20th? yaaas, who doesn't love sipping hot cocoa while taking pics with santa and enjoying some quality time with fam 
They should def make sure they have enough room for all the festive vibes. I'm also hyped about the Rothman Orthopaedics Cabin getting a refresh and those fire pits on the terrace are gonna be EVERYTHING during the game-day events 
. And, omg, who wouldn't want to take their kiddos to Breakfast with Santa? It's like the ultimate holiday experience! But, if I'm being real, I'm a little salty that it's only open until March 14th – can't they just keep it going all year round? 
... I mean, I love Philly as much as the next person, but do we really need another overpriced tourist trap in the middle of Center City? The lines for the ice rink are gonna be insane already, and now you're telling me it's gonna cost $10 to lace up a pair of skates? Not to mention all those people taking selfies with Santa... just when I think Philly is getting back to normal after summer festivals 
.
and pretend to be festive 
. I mean, who needs that much money for a skate session? $10? Are you kidding me?! 
And don't even get me started on the crowds... 3.7 million people? That's just crazy! Can't we all just stay home and watch some Netflix instead? 
But hey, I guess it's nice to have something to do during the winter blues... as long as you're not trying to get a spot at the Rothman Orthopaedics Cabin 
.
I've been looking forward to this all year! Ice skating and shopping in one place? Genius! And the Rothman Orthopaedics Cabin sounds like an awesome spot to catch some games with friends. Fire pits on the terrace? Yes, please! 
Can't wait to check out the Wintergarden too - illuminated sculptures sound mesmerizing 
And of course, who can resist a good ol' fashioned Breakfast with Santa session 
️
. Mark my words, Dilworth Park is gonna be the hottest spot in Center City this winter! 
️
Still, it looks like Dilworth Park is gonna be lit this winter season 
.
It's always a blast to visit during the holidays and now they're adding even more fun activities like ice skating and a holiday market. The fact that they have special events for families, like Breakfast with Santa, is amazing. 
they're bringing back the rothman orthopaedics ice rink and it's gonna be bigger and better than last year! i love how they're adding more activities like family-friendly events and a holiday market... my fave part tho is the rothman orthopaedics cabin - can't wait to warm up with a hot chocolate and cheer on my phillies with some friends 
️ i'm so down for some festive fun and ice skating, plus it's gonna be so nice to grab a warm drink from the winery while enjoying the sculptures in winter garden
