    The Hyatt Regency Penn's Landing is just a couple minutes walk from the ferry. I'd ferry it myself, unless your car is home base for a tailgate. Traffic in Camden when there are 22,000 fans at the S-Center BLOWS! Re: The Hyatt, It's the most centrally located Penns Landing , by the water ,hotel. It's a short 10-15 minute drive, traffic can be heavy in the area, to the Ben Franklin Bridge if you choose to drive. I believe bridge access is around 4th and Arch Sts. Follow the signs to the Susquehanna Center. Not sure about bars in the Hyatt area, but Olde City and Queen Village start on the opposite side of Columbus Blvd. Also, don't know who is travelling with you , but Rick's Cabaret and Delilah's Den are Gentleman's clubs a short drive from the Hyatt. Rick's on Columbus Blvd. and Delilah's around Spring Garden St. if memory serves.

    Regarding bars, clubs close to the Hyatt, not sure how I forgot Dave and Busters , which is HUGE , and is about 5 minutes drive north on Columbus Blvd/Delaware Avenue.

    Has anyone ever used the PATCO subway to get from Philly to Camden and back?

    The website says the "Broadway" stop is walking distance to the venue, but I wasn't sure if it's a safe walk (especially late at night, after the show). I'll have my wife with me.

    Thanks!

    I use PATCO all the time. Both the Broadway and City Hall stops are very close, safe walks to/from the venue. The routes are usually lined with police directing traffic as well, so you'll be fine.

    Thanks, GtC. Do you know which stop is closer to the venue? I assume Broadway.

    Broadway is closer to the venue itself, but it depends on where you're tailgating. If you plan to tailgate in the Campbell's Field lots where most of the action is, I'd take City Hall cuz it'll save you a couple of blocks of walking. If your lot is really close to the venue or you plan to go straight to the show, I'd take Broadway.

    1 Harbour Boulevard is Tweeter Center

    Anyone heading down from the NYC area? I have to work till about 3pm this day and would love to score a ride rather than take the train to philly then head over. The sooner I can get in the parking lot the better!

    Reply or PM me if you can be of assistance....
