This summer marks the 20th anniversary of Philadelphia’s favorite happy hour, Center City District (CCD) SIPS. Beginning June 5 and continuing every Wednesday through August 28, dozens of bars and restaurants will take part in the tradition by offering exclusive discounts found only in Center City.
Every week from 5 p.m. to 7 p.m., dozens of venues will serve $7 cocktails, including specials made with Hornitos® Tequila, $6 wine, $5 beer and half-price appetizers. After 7 p.m., select locations will provide 15% off dinner. The full list of participants is located at ccdsips.com.
“For the last twenty years, SIPS has been a must-do event for many young professionals working and living in Center City” said Prema Katari Gupta, President and CEO of the Center City District. “We now recognize that in-person events and socialization are more important than ever and we are thrilled to continue this iconic event.”
CCD SIPS at Dilworth Park presented by Hornitos® Tequila also returns this June. For the first time, CCD will introduce a limited-edition beer made in partnership with local brewery, Broad Street Brewing. SIPS Summer Splash, a Mexican-style lager with lime, will be sold exclusively at Dilworth Park’s Air Grille throughout the summer and will be available during SIPS for only $5.
