“FCM Hospitality is excited to announce two new season-long locations for Parks on Tap that span the banks of the Schuylkill River,” said FCM Hospitality Owner Avram Hornik. “One of my all-time favorite locations returns for the summer at Fairmount Water Works. This location is always a big hit with young families and neighbors. We love seeing all the familiar faces who visit every time we pop up behind the Philadelphia Museum of Art. We are also thrilled to introduce a brand new Parks on Tap site off of the South Street Bridge at Trails End. Parks on Tap has fans that follow us around each year to every location. Trail’s End is going to be a brand new addition that we hope will really excite the long-time supporters of the program who have been asking for something new for 2021. We also hope to meet and serve all new audiences in the neighborhoods surrounding the South Street Bridge, in both directions of South Philly and University City. No matter which location you pick and are closest too, we invite you to come out, relax and enjoy the summer days ahead with our Parks and Tap family.”
