You may have seen posts and videos about the FRIENDS Experience – the one in New York – and thought to yourself, “I wish there was on in Philly.” Well, your wishes have been answered as the FRIENDS Experience has popped up at a Philadelphia location and its one of the best pop ups that I have seen in quite some time.

The FRIENDS Experience pays homage to the show and allows visitors to see behind the scenes aspects of the show while taking photos and videos in some of the iconic sets that you see on Friends. You can spend time at Central Perk on the couch chatting with your friends, you can try to ‘pivot’ the couch up the stairs, you can gossip in at the dinette table in Rachel and Monica’s apartment, and you can even put your feet up in Chandler and Joey’s recliners. There’s so many things to see, do and experience while at the FRIENDS experience and you won’t want to miss it.

For this experience, you’ll need to reserve a ticket ahead of time and arrive at your timed slot. Throughout the experience, you’ll have places where there will be photo ops where cameras will be ready for you to have your picture taken. You can even stop by the shop to grab some great Friends merchandise no matter whether you’re going into the experience or not.

The FRIENDS Experience Philly is open from 2/10/22 – 5/26/23 and is located in the Pavilion (3rd Floor), across from Ethan Allen, and above Urban Outfitters.
