Philadelphia, no contest. Made in America will be in town on the 2nd and the 3rd, and besides having a killer lineup (Jay-Z, the Chainsmokers, J. Cole, etc), draws a huge crowd to the B. Franklin Parkway in Center City. Louisville is a fine city, but it's nowhere near the level of Philly for bars, foods, sightseeing, etc., especially for this weekend. Unless you don't like huge crowds, I'd go with Philly for sure. It isn't even that pricey, all things considered.
Drinking in Philly is so much cheaper than NYC
I remember the going prices for PBRs being 2 dollars, good beers 3 dollars, and mixed drinks 5 dollars. It's way more than that in NYC, with even the cheapest places being more expensive.
I want to take a last minute Labor Day weekend trip. My 2 choices are Louiseville and Philly. I will stay at a downtown hotel in either city. I’m 23 years old. I like to go to cool bars, eat good food, walk around and sightsee. Which city should I visit?
Where did you go?
Louisville is very unique American experience! Very bad weather probably making it quieter than usual on a Labor Day Weekend. Lots of festivals downtown, plenty of bars, and the neighborhoods in Louisville are what makes it shine.
To me, Philly is obviously bigger and more to do, but to me its simply a tiny New York.
Louisville is completely different, still plenty to do and of course, bourbon. Bourbon is king these days.
Philadelphia has a pretty different character than NYC. It's sort of like saying that Louisville is just a different Cincinnati. Sure, there are some similarities and one's metro size is obviously much larger than the other, but they are not just different sized versions of each other.
