This is free of cost and runs daily until December 31. It begins at 12, 2, 4, 6, and 8 pm.

Dilworth Park Ice Skating

https://centercityphila.org/parks/dilworth-park/winter

This is such a fun attraction that stays open through the winter and closes during the end of February, it is only a $5 admission fee ($3 for children) and you are free to bring your own skates, but if you are like me and need to rent them they have them available for $10.

Christmas Village

This is a cool scene to walk through and see all of the different items for sale and maybe buy some unique gifts for family and friends, it is open from now until January 1.

Peddler's Village

Madyson Thompson

It opened back in early November and it stays open until January 4. The best part is that going is free of cost, but of course they have photos with Santa and different stores and restaurants that do have a price tag.

Shady Brook Farm Light Show

This one is unique and fun, they are open nightly until January 5 and they charge $30 a carload, so pack your friends in because if you have 6 people that's only $5 each!

The Comcast Center Light Show
