The Dolphin
Philadelphia
The Dolphin is a bar and dance venue at 1539 South Broad Street in South Philadelphia. Reopened in 2013, it connects the feel of a neighbourhood tavern with a continuing programme of DJ-led nights. The operator describes a place for drinks, socialising and dancing, with individual parties giving the evenings their musical direction. House and techno are documented parts of that programme, including the longstanding Rhythm of the Night series and other hosted events. The venue's identity comes through those recurring nights as well as the bar itself, so the selected host and lineup are useful when deciding when to visit. Public party listings and private-event enquiries are handled as different parts of the operation. The operator publishes normal Friday and Saturday opening hours from evening until the early morning. Check the current event for tickets, music times and entry details. Use the South Broad Street address on the venue's own site when planning the visit rather than unrelated or incorrectly located directory entries.
