Mandatory down-time during the Pope's visit sounds pretty great to us at Ticketleap. The only thing that could make it better? Of course an opportunity to do some PopeYoga to balance out the PopeBeers, PopeSnacks and PopeCouch-sitting! We hope you'll join us for an outdoor yoga session at Schuylkill River Park, taught by one of Philly's favorite teachers Teagan Schweitzer.
Getting there: Live within walking distance? Walk! Live within biking distance? Checkout the Bicycle Coalition's handy Pope weekend bike map here. We wouldn't recommend trying to cross the Parkway/security zone. This map shows you walking routes and what's blocked off to pedestrians.
Suggested donation: $5 cash
