Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

Five-time Grammy winner John Legend returns to Philly for an evening of smooth R&B followed by a colorful fireworks display above the Philadelphia Museum of Art. Philly’s own Russell Tompkins, Jr. and the New Stylistics open the show with their sleek, smooth sounds and razor-sharp harmonies that made the world fall in love with Philly soul. Brilliant pyrotechnics by internationally acclaimed Zambelli Fireworks Internationale light the sky following the concert. Set to the theme The Melting Pot, USA, the show includes music from nations around the world and reflects the colors in each country’s national flag. 26th Street & the Benjamin Franklin Parkway
