Host Your Event

Bring your picnic baskets, games, blankets, and lawn chairs to Schuylkill Banks and enjoy scenic views of the Schuylkill River while relaxing with family and friends! 

Schuylkill Banks is part of the public park system; all Philadelphia Parks & Recreation (PPR) rules must be observed. This includes, but is not limited to, no littering, no smoking, only authorized vehicles, no vending or selling on the trail without a permit and no open fires. Permits are required to reserve space for wedding ceremonies, photography, events with 50 people or more, and games. Event permitting and scheduling is handled by PPR; learn more and apply for a permit here.
