Overview

Philadelphia is one just a handful of U.S. cities that’s lucky enough to have its professional basketball, football, hockey and baseball teams all play within city limits.

In fact, those four Philadelphia teams all play in the same complex.

The South Philadelphia Sports Complex , located about 3.5 miles south of Center City Philadelphia, is the home of Lincoln Financial Field (and the Super Bowl 52 champion Eagles football team), Citizens Bank Park (and the Phillies baseball team) and the Wells Fargo Center (and the 76ers basketball team, the Flyers hockey team and the National Lacrosse League Wings team).

The area also features an expansive park (FDR Park), an enlightening cultural museum (the American Swedish Historical Museum) and The Navy Yard, a bustling business development area complete with restaurants and green space.

Essential Info

The three arenas in the Sports Complex — which host hundreds of sports games, concerts and events throughout the year — can hold a collective 130,000-plus people. On game days and concert days, the surrounding parking lots become a mini-neighborhood, filling with fans who barbecue, drink and play games. The centrally located, 80,000-square-foot XFINITY Live! also hosts fans in its dining and entertainment complex.

Across Broad Street sits FDR Park, home to a golf course, tennis courts, a rugby field, a skate park and the American Swedish Historical Museum , which tells the story of the New Sweden colonists who settled the Delaware Valley in the mid-1600s.

Getting Here

The Sports Complex is easily accessible via SEPTA’s Broad Street subway line — just hop on the subway going southbound and take it to its final stop at NRG Station. A number of buses service the area as well.

During game days and concerts, parking is available around all three stadiums.
