Is it legal to play music in certain parks in philadelphia?|197225

My band and I want to play some covers in one of the parks in Philadelphia (since its the closest city) to earn money for a charity in our school and we were wondering if its legal to do this...maybe in certain parks?

It depends on the park. Your best bet would be to contact each specific park.

I know that Fairmount Park doesn_t allow any amplified music (whether it is a band or just a sound system for a picnic).

On top of that, it is very possible that you would need a permit. Philadelphia is a stickler for permits. They even require solo musicians who play around the subway stations to have permits.
