The Campus Philly Kick-Off Free Concert and Festival is a great event dedicated to the thousands of students that attend college in the Philadelphia area. It is held annually on the beautiful Benjamin Franklin Parkway.
The festival is an all-day FREE extravaganza including music, food, entertainment, exhibitions, free admission to museums and, of course, tons of free stuff. And don't miss College Day on the Parkway, where participating museums will offer free admission!
Last year's festival included:
- Performances on MAIN STAGE by Talib Kweli, The Ataris, Against Me! and TUV Student Talent Showcase

- College Day on the Parkway: Between 10:00 a.m. and 5:00 p.m., Philly's museums were FREE to college students with free shuttle buses operating between 12 different locations
