Spring in Philadelphia means longer days, warmer weather, and more time outside with the kids. One great way to kick off the season is at Play-A-Palooza at Smith Memorial Playground.
This free family event celebrates the start of spring and the return of extended playground hours with a fun-filled day for kids of all ages.
If your kids love playgrounds (and let’s be honest - most do), this is definitely an event worth adding to your calendar.
Saturday, April 4
10:00 AM – 1:00 PM
Location:
Smith Memorial Playground & Playhouse
East Fairmount Park, Philadelphia
The event is designed as a spring kickoff celebration for the playground’s extended seasonal hours.
Play-A-Palooza is a great opportunity to welcome spring, get outside, and enjoy a free family event in the city.
Bring the kids, enjoy the playground, and celebrate the start of a new season of outdoor play.
You can learn more about the event and Smith Memorial Playground by visiting their website or social media pages.
