Free COVID Test For Event Organizers

The City is offering Free COVID test to event organizers in Philadelphia and giving priority to events that:

  • Are hosted by and/or include communities that have historically had less access to healthcare resources, including areas with lower vaccination rates, higher case rates, and limited testing options or healthcare services.

  • Include a high number of attendees who are at higher risk for severe COVID-19 infection (refer to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention guidance here)

  • Present a high risk for COVID-19 transmission, particularly if held indoors and with a large number of individuals

This includes things like community festivals, graduations, funeral gatherings and end of life celebrations, weddings, among others.
