In response to COVID-19, the PHLCVB created the PHL Health Pledge. This initiative aims to ensure a safe return to travel and safe meetings by aligning expertise and guidance from the PHLCVB’s Chief Health Advisor and the PHL Health Advisors to establish best practices for reopening.
PHL Health Advisor Resources
The PHLCVB tapped leading population health expert, Dr. David Nash, as our Chief Health Advisor. Dr. Nash provides guidance to meeting planners on best practices for safe and healthy events and works closely with the PHL Health Advisors, a 19-person medical advisory task force.

Plan Your Meeting With Confidence

Meet PhiladelphiaMask Up in Philadelphia
In the interest of public health and in an effort to stop the spread of COVID-19, wearing a mask or face covering is required in Philadelphia at all times when inside local businesses, museums and attractions, at restaurants unless while not eating or drinking, and while outside when proper social distancing is not possible.
In response to these requirements, local attractions, museums, artists, and small businesses have begun offering their own custom face coverings, allowing you to mask up in style and with a little Philadelphia flair added in.
