Visit Philadelphia

Philadelphia surprises people.

It reveals its multifaceted, captivating personality to them block by block, mural by mural, garden by garden, neighborhood by neighborhood.

VISIT PHILADELPHIA invites people to … well, visit Philadelphia for fun. We believe in the power of travel; it shapes a person and expands horizons. Philadelphia delivers on our promise of an urban, main street, foodie, historic, cultural, cool, eye-opening, independent experiences. It’s one destination, five counties, countless things to do.

We want people to get to know Philadelphia. Smile at our ads; click around our website; watch our videos; follow us on Facebook, Twitter, TikTok, Instagram and the rest.

But mostly, we want people to visit Philadelphia over and over again.

Who We Are

We’re the region’s official leisure tourism marketing agency.

What We Do

Our mission is to build Greater Philadelphia’s image, drive day and overnight visitation and boost the economy.

Plus, we increase the number of visitors who come, the frequency in which they come, the number of nights they stay and the number of things they do. These marketing efforts enhance residents’ quality of life and civic pride.

How We Do It

Everything we do — our advertising, communications, website (visitphilly.com), social media, podcast, event and attraction promotion, hotel packages, product development and even playing up Philly’s starring role in pop culture — gives Philadelphia a voice and strengthens the ever-evolving Philadelphia brand.

It’s important that people feel like they know a destination — that’s what makes them want to visit.
