2026 is a huge year for Philadelphia — from the FIFA World Cup to the MLB All-Star Game and, of course, America's 250th birthday.

So who better to help share the city's story than the people who love it most? That's where "Phambassadors" come in.

More than 8,000 volunteers are with the program so far, but leaders have a goal of growing Phambassadors to at least 10,000 people before the year's biggest events. Phambassadors are tasked with being the "city's hype team," which means they'll be out and about to answer questions, offer recommendations and chat with visitors as the city hosts events.
