The 2017 NFL Draft begins this Thursday along the Benjamin Franklin Parkway, incorporating famed city landmarks such as The Franklin Institute and the iconic steps of the Philadelphia Museum of Art. For the first time, the NFL is constructing an open-air theater where fans can view all three Draft days in an outdoor environment. This unique setup will allow for the largest live audience ever to view the team selections.
The Ben Franklin Parkway is being transformed into a football nirvana with amazing activities for fans of all ages. The FREE three-day festival will take place rain or shine in an expansive outdoor area the size of 25 football fields.
