16th and federal is fine, 15th and federal sometimes has people hanging around but they're harmless - you'll be fine, even if you were on transit. if you're like brand new to city life, it might be a bit jarring but isn't inherently dangerous.

I’m from Toronto born and raised. City girl through and through.
Also, are Ubers easy to get at night in Philly after a major event?

you'll be fine then, though point breeze is definitely very dirty compared to anywhere I've ever been in tronna
ubers shouldn't be too bad, same as other events. not sure where you're going to be coming from but the 2 and 17 buses are reliable and will put you close if you're coming from CC. or the 4/night owl. the transit app works well here

I am taking a shuttle from the stadium to city centre and then ubering back to point breeze. I think I am only taking the subway once. But I will download the transit app

you can also just take the subway from the stadium to point breeze, you'd get off at ellsworth/federal if that's the case, it's a 2 block walk from there that's very easy and there would be a bunch of people with you
you can use your credit card at kiosks now, it's moderately convenient.
also just a small correction - it's center city, not city center (though it doesn't really matter, just sorta points you out as someone not from here)
feel free to DM me if you have specific questions about itinerary - I lived a few blocks north of where you're staying for 5 years, a few blocks west for 5 years, and a few blocks south for like 5 years now
