A quirky tradition in the Fishtown and Kensington neighborhoods, the annual Derby & Arts Festival—featured by Billy Penn and WHYY—combines an offbeat human-powered vehicle parade with local food, art vendors, and live music. The event’s playful spirit and neighborhood pride make it a highlight of Philly’s spring festival calendar.
