Explore » United States » Philadelphia » Updates » Skate into July in Philly: RiverRink Summerfest & Fresh Pavement on the Pencoyd Trail!

What a month, Philly! June was absolutely electric, with skaters from all over converging for the epic Philly Free Skate 2025 and getting in their final laps at the beloved Rothman Orthopaedics Roller Rink. The energy in the city is undeniable, and it’s carrying us right into a sizzling July!

As we roll into the heart of summer, the party continues at the Delaware River waterfront with the Independence Blue Cross RiverRink Summerfest running all month long. But it’s not just about the big events! Our very own Let’s Roll community has been hard at work, discovering amazing new pavement and proving that the best spots are often the ones we find ourselves. Let’s dive into what’s new and what’s next for skaters in the City of Brotherly Love!

Our Community's Latest Finds: Fresh Pavement Awaits!

You’ve been busy, Philly! This month, two incredible new spots hit the map thanks to our amazing community. We’re especially hyped to check out the smooth, scenic-looking path on the ‘Pencoyd Trail’ and the wide-open potential of the ‘warminster community park- lower lot’. This is what it’s all about—exploring our city on eight wheels. Keep adding those gems!
