Philadelphia gets ‘Sunny’

Get to know the city that sets the scene for the FX comedy

Although “It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia” might not paint the City of Brotherly Love in the best light (fans of the show know the show’s main characters, aka “The Gang,” are far from saints), you can’t deny the popularity of “Sunny” has drawn attention to the city. And now, with its two-day, two-night DIY tour for people interested in visiting familiar locations from the show, Philadelphia is capitalizing on that recognition.

“My co-workers and  friends  are always talking about it, so I realized we had to promote it,” says Caroline Bean, media relations manager of the Greater Philadelphia Tourism Marketing Corporation and creator of the “It’s Always Sunny” itinerary. “We got in all of the places you can see on the show.”
