Parking
There's a lot located just up the street from North Bowl at 2nd Street and Germantown Avenue that's almost always free. This lot is also about half-way between
North Bowl and Johnny Brendas (home of the after-party), so it's very convenient.
Public Transportation
Train: Take SEPTA's Market-Frankford Line to the Spring Garden exit. From the exit, head west on Spring Garden for half a block and take a right on 2nd St.
North Bowl is three blocks up on the right.
Bus: The Route 5 bus makes stops on 2nd and 3rd Streets near North Bowl.

there after the bowling portion of the event, but here are some other directions in case you need them.
