Highlights

  1. 01.

    Look ahead! The National Constitution Center will open two new galleries on America’s founding and the separation of powers in time for America’s 250th anniversary in 2026.

  2. 02.

    Go on a journey from America’s founding to the present day in Freedom Rising. This vibrant theatrical production features 360-degree multimedia and a live narrator who tells the story of the U.S. Constitution — from its creation during the 1787 Constitutional Convention to the amendments and court decisions that continue to make the Constitution “the most powerful vision of human freedom ever expressed.”

  3. 03.

    Explore Civil War and Reconstruction: The Battle for Freedom and Equality and explore how constitutional clashes over slavery set the stage for the Civil War, and how the nation transformed the Constitution after the war to more fully embrace the Declaration of Independence’s promise of liberty and equality.

Philadelphia CityPASS
Great deal and great places to see!
CityPASS is a very convenient cost effective way to see some of the great sites of the great city of Philadelphia!!
Money saver and a good guidance on fun places
I view CityPASS as a good source to find out fun places at destination city. Philadelphia CityPASS definitely helped me with that.
Amazing Experience
I found out about the CityPASS on my 1st day in Philly and I’m so glad I did because I did not have anything planned. It was inexpensive and perfect. Loved everything about it. I was able to visit 3 attractions without any hassle. I can’t wait to use this again when I travel with my kids.
This is the way to go!
We are new to the Philadelphia area and we were anxious to get out and explore some of the sites with our three kids. We came across the CityPASS and decided to take our last two weeks of summer and dedicate it to exploring. This was truly the way to do it! We used every pass and got our money's worth.
Great Purchase
I bought the city pass during my recent trip to Philly and it made getting into several sights that required timed tickets so easy. It was definitely a great purchase and well worth the price!
Philadelphia CityPASS is rated 4.6 out of 5 by 925.
Rated 1 out of 5 by from Can’t turn off useless notifications! Never, ever will I use CityPASS again. The “attraction nearby” keeps popping up, even when I’m standing in the attraction. I can’t even take a second photo without this stupid notice popping up again and again. I keep turning notifications off on the ticket in the wallet. Not even one second later, it turns itself back on. I hate this system!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from CityPass made our trip easier and more enjoyable. CityPASS was convienent and very good value. All the attractions we went to accepted the CityPASS without issue. The flexibility of CityPASS was its greatest value if we didn't get to an attraction one day we just saved it for the next day.

Rated 4 out of 5 by from So easy, affordable and only one grievance.. CityPASS Philadelphia was affordable and it was a great price for 3 different things! My ONLY problem was with using it with Adventure Aquarium. When visiting, it requires a reservation. When using cityPASS, you can only call to make a reservation. We wanted to go first thing in the morning around 10am, I called right when they opened at 9am but the soonest available time slot was 230pm. It completely changed our plans but we still made it out. Thankfully we used our cityPASS that same day and visited the Franklin Institute before the aquarium. We are glad that they even had an opening on the day we wanted to visit anf it all worked out. Hoping to see an option where you can reserve you time slot right on the app for Adventure Aquarium when using cityPASS. That was my only grievance! It is so easy using it to get into everything and we loved that.
