History
Dilworth Park opened in September of 2014 and was named after Richardson Dilworth, the city mayor from 1956 to 1962.
The park is located in the heart of Philly, in what was formerly named Centre Square by William Penn in 1682. Right outside the foot of City Hall, the park was intended as a place for the community to gather.
Visitors of the park will have the opportunity to find informational panels, videos, and graphics about the history of the park and the role it plays in Philadelphia.
Park Features
With approximately 120,000 sq. Ft. of space, the redesigned park features tons of updated amenities for guests to explore. The park provides grass lawns and landscaping, two large glass stair canopies, a gorgeous programmable fountain, an ice skating rink, a café, and a restaurant.
Walk amongst the new plantings and greenery through the pedestrian-friendly space towards one of the most uniquely designed components of the park. Pulse, the 11,600 square foot fountain, features programmable jets that create an interactive water dance display for viewers to experience.
In the winter months, the interactive fountain turns into a winter wonderland-inspired ice skating rink. This spacious rink encourages families to lace up some skates and take advantage of the pop-up attraction while it’s available.
In the summer, visitors can enjoy many fun activities such as outdoor fitness classes, musical performances, or even free movies playing on the lawn.
The café located in the park serves a variety of sandwiches, salads, and snacks to accompany you on your stroll through the park. Across from the café, you can find the Air grille restaurant for a more dine-in experience.
