Beneath Allentown’s bright lights and art deco facades lies a city woven with secrets, scandals, and showdowns, each echoing through grand halls and quiet corners. This self-guided audio tour takes you beyond the guidebooks, threading through storied streets and legendary landmarks to uncover riveting tales that locals rarely share.

Why did the PPL Center once set off shockwaves beyond the world of sports? What political feud threatened to tear apart the very foundation of the Allentown School District? Who famously vanished from a suite at the Americus Hotel, leaving only a cryptic note and a half-eaten sandwich?

Move through moments of spectacle and intrigue as you wind from iconic arenas to hidden alcoves. Each stop promises a new twist—a tale of rebellion, a shadowy backroom deal, or a forgotten toast to triumph—that will change how you see the city.

Press play and step into the real Allentown, where every corner hints at a secret waiting to be found.
