Member’s only program. Discover how Philadelphia’s world’s fairs reshaped the city. From the grand 1876 Centennial that gave us Memorial Hall, Horticultural Hall, and West Philadelphia’s suburban growth, to the 1926 Sesquicentennial that left behind the Municipal Stadium and new South Philly infrastructure, and the 1976 Bicentennial’s smaller-scale cultural projects.
