The Flower Show at the Pennsylvania Convention Center is accessible to visitors with disabilities.

The Philadelphia Flower Show is dedicated to providing all of our guests with a safe and enjoyable experience, including those with disabilities and special needs. The Pennsylvania Convention Center is a fully accessible venue from street level, as well as from public transportation channels. Please know that there can be many guests, bright colors, and loud sounds throughout the Show spaces. To minimize these factors, consider a visit during the week in the late afternoon or early evening. 

PHS values all of our guests with different types of accommodation needs, and service animals are welcomed and permitted in the Show spaces that are open to the public. The Flower Show welcomes ADA Title III service animals. The Flower Show does not allow pets, emotional support animals, comfort animals, or therapy dogs.

Entering the PA Convention Center

All Convention Center entrances are accessible from the street level, and elevators are available inside the center.

Guests who need accessible equipment within the Pennsylvania Convention Center can secure a reservation onsite or online. It is recommended that people reserve a mobility rental online ahead of their visit to ensure availability -- see reservation information below.  Bring a copy of your confirmed order and a picture ID with you to the Flower Show on the day of your visit.

There are (2) locations where mobility equipment will be available in the Convention Center:  outside of Hall A/main exhibits area, and outside Room 108 at the Center's West entrance on 12th Street.

If the guest is able to walk to either mobility equipment stand within the Convention Center, they should first enter the Convention Center through the marked entrances:

• West Entrance - 12th and Arch Street:  Ticket sales via Box Office and kiosks. This is the location of Will Call and Volunteer check-in.
• East Entrance - 12th and Arch Street:  Ticket sales via kiosks.

The guest must pass through the security checkpoint and have their ticket scanned. The guest will continue to the mobility stand outside of Hall A/main exhibits area to pick up their reserved equipment, or to secure an onsite rental.

If the guest is not able to walk far, someone in their party can pick up the mobility rental from the equipment stand and drive/roll it outside of the Convention Center to where the person is located, then continue into the Convention Center with their guest to pass through the security checkpoint and have their tickets scanned.  Elevators are located near all the Convention Center entrances to accommodate anyone with a scooter or in a wheelchair.
