The fall is the most wonderful time of the year. How could it not be? The warm colors, falling leaves, sweater weather and the pumpkin… On second thought, not so much of the pumpkin. There’s too many pumpkin flavored things, which can become annoying. But like any other city, Philly hosts some amazing events every season. Especially during the fall. Here are some of the upcoming events that the city of brotherly love has to offer.
