Willow Grove Park was a suburban Philadelphia Amusement Park from 1896 until 1971 that featured attractions such as performances by John Phillips Sousa. From 1972 until 1975, the Park operated as Six Gun Territory. In 1976, unable to keep pace with modern American themed amusement parks, Willow Grove announced that it would not open for another season.
In August of 1982, Willow Grove Park Mall opened on the site. The mall’s style paid homage to the original Willow Grove with amusement park decorations, old photos on food court tables, artwork, and a carousel, all inside the mall.
Large commemorative markers displaying bands playing at the Willow Grove Park still greet visitors at each entrance today.
