About Philadelphia Ship Preservation Guild
Gazela Primeiro, a 1901 historic tall ship owned by the Philadelphia Ship Preservation Guild since 1990, is docked at Penn's Landing in Philadelphia and offered as a boutique, dockside event venue. Guests board the vessel for private celebrations on its broad outdoor decks, with views of the Delaware River. The open-air setting includes a stage that can accommodate live music or presentations. Private events remain dockside; sailing is not part of event bookings. Each booking is reserved for a single group per time slot.
