Originally founded as the summer home of the Philadelphia Orchestra, The Mann Center for the Performing Arts is the only outdoor cultural arts venue in the Philadelphia region and one of the largest of its kind in the nation. This unique open-air theater has hosted some of the world's best-known artists and performances. Today, The Mann offers a range of arts programs like nowhere else in the area--from orchestra to opera, dance to drumming, pops and jazz to rock and roll.

The Mann Center presents diverse, world-class entertainment in a beautiful park setting at affordable prices. "Giving back" to the community is part of our mission. That's why we offer a host of outreach opportunities as a FREE service to underserved audiences through our Access the Arts Program. Access the Arts includes complimentary tickets for nonprofit groups, our Young People's Concert Series, and more.

There's no better place to enjoy a wonderful evening of entertainment than surrounded by the sweetness of summer-night air. The Mann provides concert goers with more than 4,000 seats under cover in the pavilion and 10,000 general admission spaces under the stars on the lawn and terrace. For a "complete" night out, you'll also find an extensive array of dining options for individuals and groups, including fine food in our tented restaurant and festive picnic-style fare in our pine grove. Come for dinner and truly savor the evening! See their website for more free programs for young people. http://www.manncenter.org/Pages/YPC.html
