- Third NBC Premier League Mornings Live fan festival in Philadelphia, PA
- Event to take place at Dilworth Park outside Philadelphia’s City Hall
- Fan festival will broadcast nine Premier League fixtures
- ePremier League USA Finals will also be contested at the Fan Fest

The two-day event (April 4-5) will take place at Dilworth Park, located outside of Philadelphia’s City Hall in Center City, and features live action from nine Premier League fixtures across five match windows.

The Premier League Trophy, club mascots and special guests will be in attendance at the event, which fans can attend for free by signing up HERE.

Former City defender Gerry Taggart and Club Mascot Filbert Fox flew to Miami before Christmas to represent LCFC at NBC's Premier League Mornings Live fan festival in the Sunshine State of Florida.

Thousands gathered around a large screen to watch live broadcasts of top-flight fixtures, as well as enjoy several activations laid on by the Premier League's official partners.

Furthermore, NBC Sports and the Premier League have also teamed up to bring the ePremier League USA Finals, a free-to-play esports tournament operated by Gfinity and FACEIT, to the Philadelphia Fan Fest.

Registration for the tournament, which will see competitors battle it out online to reach the Philadelphia finals in April, begins on Monday 24 February and can be accessed by clicking HERE.

Online qualification matches on Xbox and PlayStation consoles begin March 4 and the finalists will be flown to Philadelphia for the ePremier League USA Finals at the Fan Fest on April 4-5.

The Philadelphia fan festival is the third and final Premier League Mornings Live supporter event that NBC Sports and the Premier League will present this season, following October’s event in Austin, Texas, and December’s event in Miami, Florida.

The Premier League has an ongoing commitment to bringing unique experiences to its fans and working with NBC Sports on Premier League Mornings Live continues that direct outreach to passionate fans in different cities across the United States.

Premier League Chief Executive, Richard Masters, said: “It seems only fitting that we round off our Premier League Mornings Live events for the 2019/20 season by bringing soccer fans together in the city famed for brotherly love, Philadelphia. 

“The event at Dilworth Park will be another exciting chance for NBC Sports and us to bring Premier League action direct to supporters in the US and will be the first time at a Mornings Live Fan Festival where we have hosted an esports final. We hope that this and the other great free activities available to fans will encourage them to come down and get involved.”
