This Thursday, 8/4, Philadelphia magazine is hosting ‘the biggest party of the year’, Best of Philly. The event takes place at Dilworth Park and celebrates the magazine’s annual issue which features hundreds of Philadelphia’s ‘best’. Categories range from “Best Drone Store” to “Best Menu Item With ‘Jawn’ In It” (don’t worry there plenty more ordinary categories in between). If you haven’t purchased a ticket or can’t attend the event on Thursday, you can still get your taste of some of Philly’s best, even at a special discounted price thanks to SEPTA. Two of our Pass Perks Partners made the cut, ranking among Philly’s best.
