2016 Democratic National Convention - July 25th - Philadelphia

All eyes will be on Philadelphia in July 2016 as the city hosts the Democratic National Convention.

 

Held at the Wells Fargo Center in South Philadelphia, the convention is one of the marquis events of the 2016 Presidential Race. During the week-long gathering, delegates from the Democratic Party will announce their nominations for President and Vice President of the United States.

 

The convention not only has major implications for the political world, but is also expected to have a significant economic impact on the region.

 

Philadelphia last hosted the Republican National Convention in 2000, but the Democratic National Convention has not been held in the City of Brotherly Love since 1948.
