Explore unique outdoor party locations in Philadelphia

There are so many reasons to throw an outdoor party in Philadelphia! Whether that's to celebrate a high school graduation or a wedding reception in style, outdoor parties give guests a chance to enjoy the sunshine while socializing and dancing. Philadelphia's outdoor venues are some of the most diverse in the country. It's a rare city that has waterfalls, forests, a riverfront, historic urban parks, botanical gardens, and rooftop lounges within an hour's drive of each other. And let's not forget about outdoor activity venues for parties. From mini golf to batting cages, Philadelphia's party options are nearly unlimited!

Waterfront party locations in Philadelphia

If access to the waterfront is a must-have for your next party, there's no better choice than a boat on the Delaware River! We recommend The Moshulu, the world's oldest and largest square-rigged sailing vessel still in operation! Built in 1904 in Europe, The Moshulu has long since been converted into a floating restaurant and entertainment venue for Philadelphia partygoers. Outdoor weddings, corporate events, and holiday parties are held here yearly, where guests can stand on the deck and watch the glittering cityscape drift by over cocktails and fine dining. For another historic waterfront party location, check out the Independence Seaport Museum. Located on Penn’s Landing, event bookings can include not just access to the museum's exhibits but also a 4th floor ballroom and a Riverview Lookout. You can also hold outdoor parties on the deck of the Cruiser Olympia, the world's oldest steel warship still floating!

Philadelphia outdoor venues with a skyline view

Philadelphia has one of the most iconic skylines in the country. Soaring skyscrapers in the background of your event give it that much more class compared to an indoor setting. If you want an elegant wedding, corporate event, or party, why not host it at an outdoor space with an urban view? One of the best outdoor venues with a skyline view in Philadelphia has to be Dilworth Park. Located just steps away from the Pennsylvania Convention Center, Avenue of the Arts, and office district, Dilworth Park is framed by tall buildings. You can choose between the Rothman Orthopaedics Cabin, Ice Rink, Terrace, among other spaces. For a mixture of historic architecture and greenery, check out the Rodin Museum. It's a peaceful urban oasis filled with sculptures, water fountains, and well cultivated plants. It's a beautiful place to hold a wedding ceremony, engagement party, or fundraising gala.
