Return to Blog
The second day of Fair Saint Louis kicks off at 4 p.m. under Gateway Arch grounds.
About an hour into the festival, the Boeing Air Show will start showcasing high-flying, exhilarating, aerobatic aviators performing over the Mississippi River.
Later in the night, singer-songwriter Johnny Gill will take the Enterprise Rent-A-Car stage at 6:30 p.m. followed by Keith Sweat at 8:15 p.m.
The Edward Jones firework show begins at 9:35 p.m.
MetroLink is operating on a normal weekday schedule today.
To avoid waiting in line, purchase your round-trip tickets using the Metro Mobile app.
To minimize long lines and delays:
- Missouri riders are encouraged to use the 8th & Pine station
- Illinois riders should use the Laclede’s Landing station
Both stations are about a half-mile from fairground entrances.
You should expect trains to be crowded, particularly during the evening after the fireworks have concluded. Metro will have extra security, personnel and volunteer employee ambassadors assigned throughout the MetroLink system.
