‘Celebrating With FREE WAWA Hoagies!’
Imagine 7 tons of hoagies! Now imagine a free hoagie! That’s what you get with WAWA Hoagie Day!
WAWA Hoagie Day was celebrated in 1992 with a free, 500-foot hoagie. On that day, then-Mayor Ed Rendell, proclaimed the hoagie the “Official Sandwich of Philadelphia.”
Decades later, the 29th annual Wawa Hoagie Day taking place on June 29th at noon, focuses on honoring our troops and First Responders, and expands on Wawa’s partnership with the USO, is one of the tastier events that takes place during WAWA Welcome America!
Philadelphians and tourists in the past have lined up on the lawn outside the Independence Visitor Center on Independence Mall to enjoy a free hoagie, courtesy of Wawa. And we aren’t talking about a few tables of hoagies, but 7 tons! This year, it will be held outside of Independence Hall between 5th and 6th Streets!
Not only does the event salute our local and national Heroes – our military, firemen and police officers, but there will be a special performance by Six String Soldiers of The United States Army String Band.
In addition to free food and entertainment, the National Constitution Center will be offering free admission all-day, from 9:30 am – 6 pm courtesy of Wawa. You must RESERVE your FREE tickets! (refresh link to find open time slots)
