With pleasant temps forecast for this weekend, and with only some possible drizzle Saturday morning, festival planners are confident crowds will be out to the Italian Market Festival for food and fun.
From Friday, May 19 through Sunday, May 21, Philadelphia will host multiple outdoor fests, including the annual Italian Market Festival on Ninth Street which features a greased pole climbing contest. The art-focused Roxborough Spring Fest and beer-forward Made on American Street Festival are also happening this Saturday.
