It kept my attention and lasted a good length of 1 hour. I wouldn't do it again. Once is defenitely enough, but itsn't once enough for any attraction really? It really is unique, seeing and realistically hearing the revolution on the actual buildings where everything transpired. If you are squeezed for time I would skip it, but if you have... more

Do not have any kids of my own, but other kids in the tour group seemed bored and disinterested. I thought the show would have been a little bit higher in technological aspect (it is not a moving image but more like slides or stills projected onto brick walls), but it was an entertaining way to show the history at... more

We were traveling as a family with three children and a set of grandparents on a historical trip up the east coast. The Lights of Liberty show was fantastic! The script was historically accurate, and the artwork and music were beautiful. My father-in-law made the observation at the conclusion that if every child experienced this presentation sometime during their education,... more

This show is advertised as a spectacular light show. However, I found it to be quite average at best. They project some images on the sides of historic buildings and you do get a good history lesson, but is is far from extraordinary and quite boring for an average teenager. The problems with the headsets seem to have been resolved... more

I think older visitors ( or those exhausted) should be aware that there is an amount of walking on this tour. Perhaps 10 blocks round trip. It is not an outrageous amount of walking and it is flat but my sisters and I had spent a very long day already in the city and we would have skipped this experience... more

Great attraction, very educational. Great hit with my family. My party consisted of 2 Seniors, 4 children from 5-12, and my husband and I. They all LOVED IT! including our children. In spite the cold, windy night they enjoy the lights, music and narration. I never saw kids this young so interested in history. Specially my 11 yr old son.... more

Thank God America's forefathers were more competent than the folks at PECO Lights of Liberty. The "spectacular sound and light show" hits a snag when almost half the headphones on your tour fail, and there aren't enough replacements to meet demand. Seems their policy is to let the customers test the equipment! Once the headsets do work, the audio is... more

The show has great potential - illuminated historic buildings, music by the Philly orchestra and a cast of all-star narrators like Walter Cronkite, Charlton Heston and Whoopie Goldberg - but it fails to deliver BIGTIME!!!!! Our guide decked out in historic garb warned the audience - not too nicely - to be careful with the headsets because they are fragile... more

The Lights of Liberty Show is a sound and light show that tours through historic Philadelphia. I had seen some of the lights on occassion while walking through the neighborhood and couldn't imagine paying to go on the "show" when I could see the lights for free. Then a friend was in town visiting and we decided to try it.... more
