Celebrate St. Louis returns to downtown St. Louis this Fourth of July weekend with live music, family activities, great food, and unforgettable drone and fireworks. However you plan to celebrate, MetroLink is one of the easiest ways to get to downtown festivities.

Skip the Traffic

Forget circling downtown looking for parking. Ride MetroLink and enjoy a short walk from downtown stations like Convention Center, 8th & Pine, and Laclede’s Landing.

Plan Your Trip

Before you head downtown, download Transit App, plan your route, and get ready to enjoy everything Celebrate STL has to offer. Here are some tips to make your 4th of July trip easy and convenient:

• Purchase a One-Day Pass on the Transit app for just $5 to avoid lines at ticket vending machines, and enjoy an entire day of unlimited MetroLink rides
• Take advantage of more than 10,000 free parking spots at MetroLink stations in Missouri and Illinois
• Check MetroLink schedules in advance for departure times to ensure you don’t miss the last trains of the evening.

This Fourth of July, leave the driving to us. Ride with Metro to skip the traffic and spend more time celebrating with family and friends.

Happy Independence Day from Metro Transit!
