This Sunday, Synthicide and Shadowplay PHL are teaming up to throw the very first annual TROPIGOTH Festival at Liberty Point, and it might be the most delightfully out-of-the-norm party concept Philly's waterfront has seen all summer.

Light up the night at River Glow on Saturday, August 1 at Cavanaugh’s River Deck! DJ Sitch will keep the waterfront party moving while you enjoy free glow sticks, sparklers, neon vibes, drink specials, swag, and giveaways. Buy Tickets for the $10 one-hour open bar, plus enjoy $6 Super Lytes, $5 Fireball shots, and $4 Miller Lites all night long.

FORGET waiting until December, because on Friday, July 24, the Armentani Bros are bringing Christmas to the middle of a Philadelphia summer with their Christmas in July partyatCavanaugh’s River Deck.

Christmas? In July? On the waterfront? We’ve made plans for much less convincing reasons.

Philadelphia isn't winding down just because the weekend is coming to an end. In fact, some of the city's best events are happening today, we’ve got live jazz, karaoke, paint-and-sips, and waterfront day parties that make Monday feel very far away.

Every Philadelphia summer eventually turns into a waterfront summer.

The very second the weather breaks, people start migrating east like they’re being summoned. The Delaware River stretch has become one of the easiest places in the city to build an entire night around without the need to travel. You can bounce between beer gardens, giant decks, cocktail spots, outdoor hangouts, and bars to your heart’s content.If you’re anything like the masses, suddenly everyone wants a frozen drink outside with a view of the Benjamin Franklin Bridge instead of standing shoulder-to-shoulder in a dark room pretending it’s still January.

Every so often, a new bar opens in Philadelphia and you can immediately tell it is about to become part of the regular rotation. Not in a forced, overhyped way, but more in that way where it suddenly starts showing up everywhere. Someone drops it in the group chat. You see it on Instagram stories two weekends in a row, and just like that, it is on your list.
