FAIR ST. LOUIS
A family event for all ages, the Fair has grown to one of the country’s largest Fourth of July celebrations, attracting hundreds of thousands of fairgoers to the St. Louis Riverfront each and every year.
The Fair combines live music and entertainment with thrilling air shows, educational activities, delicious food and magnificent fireworks. Entertainers such as Bill Cosby, Kenny Rogers, Liza Minnelli, Dolly Parton, Bob Hope, The Beach Boys, Ray Charles and Elton John have been a part of the Fair over the years.
Clowns, storytellers, musicians, pilots and performers thrill fairgoers, but the highlight of each Fair is the spectacular, world-class fireworks extravaganza that lights up the sky above the Arch grounds.
