The 52 Weeks of Firsts is a citywide, yearlong celebration honoring Philadelphia’s legacy of innovation produced by the Philadelphia Historic District 250th Committee. To honor these groundbreaking inventions and firsts, the Philadelphia Historic District is holding a year’s worth of free events to celebrate the country’s 250th birthday. The 52 Weeks of Firsts will take place every week of the 2026 semiquincentennial year across the City of Philadelphia in more than a dozen neighborhoods.
