As a release notes, last year was a sellout event, attracting over 1,000 attendees, and it is anticipated that tickets for the 2026 event will go quickly. This event is the Market\u2019s largest fundraising effort of the year, and sponsorship packages are also available (benefits include complimentary tickets, access to the VIP sponsor lounge, and advertising opportunities in event materials.)<\/p>\n<p>\u201cReading Terminal Market and Liberty Coca-Cola Beverages are both committed to investing locally in our communities, making this partnership all the more meaningful,\u201d said Michael Zeller, Senior Director of Sales for Liberty Coca-Cola Beverages, who is sponsoring the event. \u201cWe deliver more than beverages to Philadelphia\u2014we refresh the community through support, engagement, and shared experiences.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Proceeds from the Party for the Market benefit the mission of Reading Terminal, which is to feed \u201cPhilly\u2019s heart and soul.\u201d What that essentially means is a space for 80+ vendors offering everything from fresh produce, meats, and seafood to prepared foods, baked goods, crafts, and specialty items. Proceeds help with things like building maintenance, capital improvements, special programming, and community outreach.<\/p>\n<p>Tickets for the event at Reading Terminal Market (1136 Arch St.) are now available (cost is $300) and can be purchased online at <a href=\"https:\/\/readingterminalmarket.org\/event\/party-for-the-market\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">readingterminalmarket.org\/event\/party-for-the-market.<\/a>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\n\t\tKeywords<\/p>\n<p>\t\t\t\tReading Terminal Market,\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n<p>\t\t\t\t Party for the Market,\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n<p>\t\t\t\t Fundraising event,\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n<p>\t\t\t\t Philly\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"By Molly Given Reading Terminal Market is a fun venue to explore any day in Philly, but especially&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":483205,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[5132],"tags":[5229,113837,1448,218689,2830,1311,18823,150905,67,586,132,5230,68,2969],"class_list":{"0":"post-483204","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-philadelphia","8":"tag-america","9":"tag-fundraising-event","10":"tag-pa","11":"tag-party-for-the-market","12":"tag-pennsylvania","13":"tag-philadelphia","14":"tag-philly","15":"tag-reading-terminal-market","16":"tag-united-states","17":"tag-united-states-of-america","18":"tag-unitedstates","19":"tag-unitedstatesofamerica","20":"tag-us","21":"tag-usa"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@us\/115816185536583056","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/483204","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=483204"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/483204\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/483205"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=483204"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=483204"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=483204"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
