Find us at the Finish Line: Walk Around Philadelphia

JJ Tiziou & Walk Around Philadelphia

Immersive/Interactive Experience, Spoken Word & Storytelling

Join us at Cherry Street Pier to celebrate the completion of the 14th Walk Around Philadelphia!

We'll have been walking all day completing the final segment of our 100+ mile circumnavigation of the entire city border, and we'll be delighted to see you at the finish line.

NOTE: the actual arrival time of the day's walkers will be somewhat unpredictable; that's how it goes with this wild walking experience. We'll do our best to keep folks apprised of our ETA! Keep an eye out for folks in red Walk Around Philadelphia t-shirts and enjoy all that Cherry Street Pier has to offer as we find our way to you...

You're also invited to join us for any of the actual walk segments (Sept 6-29, Fri/Sat/Sundays) or other upcoming events too!

Walk Around Philadelphia is a segmented 100+ mile walk around the entire city border that happens twice a year in February and September, with other programs throughout the year.

Participants can join for any individual segemnt or partial segment as they are able, or set out to do it on their own anytime!
