Winter in Franklin Square by Citizens featuring the Electrical Spectacle Holiday Light Show by PECO

Presented by Historic Philadelphia, Inc. at Franklin Square

Historic Philadelphia, Inc., (HPI) the non-profit organization that manages and operates the award-winning Franklin Square, will bring the sparkle to Winter in Franklin Square presented by Citizens featuring the Electrical Spectacle Holiday Light Show presented by PECO from November 19 – December 31, daily 5 – 9 pm, and 5 – 10 pm on Fridays and Saturdays. The seven-acre Franklin Square brings the magic of the holidays back with health and safety protocols, expanded seating, and plenty of fresh air, so that everyone can still have fun while being safe. Sanitization stations, family-friendly social-distancing reminders, limited capacities on attractions, and public announcements will help to ensure safety for all.
Visitors can celebrate the magic of the holidays both day and night in festive Franklin Square. During the day, delight in playing 18 holes of wintery splendor while playing Chilly Philly Mini Golf presented by IBEW Local 98, spin with holiday music on the Parx Liberty Carousel, get active and move your feet along the Snowy Silly Stroll, and slide, swing, and run in the playgrounds.
Beginning at 5 pm each evening, the Square begins to sparkle. Enjoy Winter in Franklin Square presented by Citizens, dazzle in the lights of the Electrical Spectacle Holiday Light Show presented by PECO with cozy fire pits and expanded safely-distanced seating. Sparked by Benjamin Franklin’s electrifying genius, Franklin Square Electrical Spectacle Holiday Light Show presented by PECO is a free light show that illuminates the Square nightly. Marvel at more than 100,000 lights (more than ever before!), as they shimmer, dance, and illuminate the Square to a soundtrack of holiday classics, some of which are performed by The Philly POPS® in two alternating shows every 30 minutes beginning at 5 pm daily, until 9 pm Sundays – Thursdays and 10 pm on Friday & Saturdays, weather permitting.
New for 2020, Chilly Philly Mini Golf presented by IBEW Local 98, transforms Center City’s only miniature golf course for socially-distanced winter fun both daytime and evenings. Updated with COVID-related safety standards, the course is complete with lights, holiday music, and larger than life wintertime friends throughout the course. The 18-hole game features reproductions of Philadelphia icons and landmarks. ($10 adults, $8 children). November 19 – December 31, daily 10 am – 9 pm, Fri & Sat 10 am – 10 pm.
Unfortunately, due to new City of Philadelphia regulations, for the time being there will be no SquareBurger or Franklin Bus food and drink service during Winter in Franklin Square presented by Citizens.
