During her speech – set to begin at the Temple Performing Arts Center at 2 p.m. on Dec. 20, 2024 – Parker will release her administration’s first-year report on key projects and initiatives. She will also provide updates on preparations underway for the city next year.

Ahead of the 2 p.m. speech at Temple, Parker took the subway from City Hall to Cecil B. Moore Avenue. She then walked to the Temple Performing Arts Center.

Mayor Parker speaks to a woman on the subway on Friday.

Her speech comes a day after City Council approved the Philadelphia 76ers’ controversial plan to build an arena in Center City, which has sparked protests from groups throughout the city.

Parker addressed the arena plans during a speech Thursday afternoon. It’s unknown at this time whether or not she’ll speak about the arena again during Friday’s speech.
