So, what are you doing this weekend? Those staying in the Philadelphia area should take advantage of everything that will be going on in Center City. For starters, there's the festivals, the parades and the fireworks. And if you haven't heard, Philadelphia is hosting a Live 8 concert and Dave Matthews, Alicia Keys and Kanye West -- among others -- will be playing. On Monday, Elton John will be performing on the steps of the Philadelphia Art Museum.

And for once, not having a car is an advantage. With the all the visitors expected, it's safe to say that public transportation is the way to go. Plus, SEPTA will be selling special $8 all-day unlimited travel passes for Saturday and Monday. Passes must be purchased individually at SEPTA Sales Offices or Regional Rail ticket windows.

This will be an unforgettable weekend and Penn students should not miss out.
