On December 3, 2023 Sylvester Stallone returned to the City of Brotherly Love to celebrate the 47th anniversary of the original premiere of “Rocky.”
From a stage near the steps of the Philadelphia Museum of Art, Stallone was awarded a Key to the City and Dec. 3 was officially declared “Rocky Day,” in Philadelphia. In addition to delivering a powerful speech and greeting fans, he also cut the ribbon for the grand opening The Rocky Shop, which exclusively features items from the official Sly Stallone Shop. The Rocky Shop is located inside the Parkway Visitor Center Outpost, next to the base of the “Rocky Steps” and near the famous Rocky Statue.
