Join JJ Tiziou & Walk Around Philadelphia's perimeter walkers for a series of Tuesday Fringe Festival happy hours on the city's edge, with special live music from the West Philadelphia Orchestra brass band!

Learn about the 100+ mile adventure of circumnavigating the entire city perimeter while enjoying the beer garden at Cherry Street Pier.

Food & drink are available from the CSP vendors. 

While a lot of questions about the walk are answered in the FAQ, this will be a great opportunity to get your questions answered in person and learn a few of the secrets of the citys furthest reaches.  

Cherry Street Pier is an all-ages ADA-accessible venue.
