Weird how it…read morewasnt posted in any event sites because when I searched for the event, it was posted 20 miles away. Probably not even in St. Louis City proper. Doesn't make sense. The other one is probably made for the farmers who are scared or prejudiced to go into the city. Great place to have lunch and try out different items to eat. I had the $7 Halibut Cevice which is pretty good. A well rounded dish with the different corn items and a sweet potato base. The Bootleggin BBQ ribs was yummy and very tender. Sauce was pretty good as well. I could definitely see this festival growing some more. Good turn out with the stalls and crowd. Theres even entertainment. Would love to come back and experience it again next year. Thank you so much for reading my review. I hope this helps your decision making experience. Enjoy your yelptastic day!

I have seen many shows here over the years, and even seen a few football games back in the days of…read morethe St. Louis Rams! It has surprisingly good sound for a dome covered stadium, and I like that it's a solid roof so it's dark enough for a concert. It is easy access and there are lots f places around the stadium to eat and drink, and even the food stands inside have good food and drink and aren't too terribly expensive. I always look forward to shows here, but it would be great if they got football back!

I had a great experience at the Dome at America Center. Went to the R& B Tour (Usher Raymond &…read moreChris Brown) and it was definitely an experience! Didn't just feel like i was watching a performance, but like being a part of it! My friend and I were seated in Section 316 row A and it honestly felt like we were in the 200's with great views! I'm scared of heights and don't do nosebleeds, these seating were perfect and will definitely buy seats in this section again. Drinks & water were pricey. $18 for a shot. The bartender who served me was generous with her pour so I gave an additional tip. Downside: 1. Crowded as to be expected though. Upon arrival, there were long lines to enter the arena. Thought I'll missed a portion of the show arriving 1hr late, but nope. They were still trying to get people in. 2. The escalators, not many so feel like sardines trying to get onto one. I eventually opted to take the stairs thinking I'm "just going to the 300's sections." Boy I was wrong! If I remember correctly it was close to 6 flight of stairs! I was out of breath halfway lol. 3. Elevators are a few, and not easily located. If you are differently able, suggest that you arrive extremely early to avoid the crowd. I didn't have to use the restrooms, but while chatting to another concert goer she mentioned that the building is not frequently used, so it tends to experience maintenance issues on the night of shows. I didn't observe any of that. Lobby area and surroundings where clean. Similar to stadiums people place drinks on the ground and it gets knocked over, so you might have an unusual liquid running by you. Last time I was here was to see Beyonce in 2023 and also had a great experience. Definitely will return, but will try to arrive much earlier. I recommend taking public transportations or a ride share. If not, you'll probably be at a standstill when trying to leave. The metro link is a couple blocks away, easy walk (with the exception of a flight of stairs from the train tracks). On event nights, Metro (trains) runs on an extended schedule, so you don't have to worry about leaving the show early. Will say though, those trains can get packed. Especially when leaving the show. Tip (If you choose to watch the videos clips I uploaded, you might need to mute the others not currently listening to.

Perfect first visit to Chaifetz Arena last Friday night. We came from Oregon to see Ella Langley,…read moreand it was sold out and the setting was perfect. In particular, Mark one of the ushers/security? was extremely gracious to my wife and he told her that it would be easier to use the restrooms on the main floor versus going back up.

Except for the rain after the show, but I doubt the Arena had any control over that.

Held on a Saturday in March, Green With Indie is a yearly eco-friendly indie craft show created by…read morethe STL Craft Mafia. It's actually a juried show, showcasing the most creative and earth-friendly independent art and designs in the Midwest. A requirement for application for this show is that whatever your product is, it has to be earth-friendly, salvaged, upcycled, recycled, home grown, home made, revamped, or refurbished. It's one of the more popular craft shows in St. Louis, and admission is always free. For the last several years, it's held at the gym at Webster University. And the products are pretty diverse...from vintage clothes to repurposed furniture to soaps. What I really like about this show is that it's a blend of old and new every year. There are some usual vendors, and then there are ones that I've never seen before. They also now include food, and this year they had local vendors with food stand food and chocolate and truffles to take home. They've also expanded the show to have some craft booths where you can do a Make-It-and-Take-It yourself to get into the crafting spirit, sponsored by UpCycle Exchange and Perennial, two indie groups that promote repurposing. I love the fact that they are also very organized. The vendors usually have business cards, and they are very enthused about their products. And if you forget to grab a card or if you didn't have a chance to stop by the show, the list of the vendors and their websites are always on the Green with Indie website. Local shopping 24/7! My favorites for 2013: *Beqi Clothing: http://beqiclothing.com/ - She's always been a favorite of mine! *Anna Ourth Jewelry: http://www.annaourthjewelry.com/ - Another oldie favorite; I love the simplicity of her designs. *Gather Studios: http://gatherstudios.com/index.html - I guess she usually does art stones, but she had a booth of vintage jewelry...it was just amazing, and I walked away with a couple of pieces for $10! *Red Door Furniture - http://www.reddoorfurnitureco.com/ *Souvenirs from Wonderland - http://www.etsy.com/shop/CarrieJeanHawkins - She takes old jewelry boxes and salvages them...they are so amazing. I'm going to buy one one day...but first I need to organize my stuff! *Sew Good and Trendy - http://www.sewgoodandtrendy.com/ - Another oldie, but her purses are so durable. *The Weaving Guys - http://www.etsy.com/shop/TheWeavingGuys - Guys who weave rugs out of old materials.

For one, everything is really spread out very well. The Webster Gym is a nice large location and you can easily get down the aisles and view all of the different wares without feeling crowded. The variety of vendors is nice. Sure there are $250 pieces of furniture but there are also $5 bars of soap and $2 chapstick holders. I was able to find some really cute items. I wish I'd known that food trucks were going to be there, I wouldn't have eaten in advance. My only suggestion for next year? Sell some tote bags at the door for a $1 and that way vendors don't have to use paper bags and people can buy a tote if they forget their own.

Review: Disney on Ice Feb 2026 I love live entertainment!…read moreThis event was for the kiddos... and of course myself & grandma too! (any reason to be a big kid again)! Tickets: I drove downtown to the box office to save on the extra convenient fees that are automatically added if purchased online through ticket master. Service: This time around, they were two employees working. One was a lady, I wanted to wait for the older guy who was already helping someone, as he seemed very helpful in giving her insights. The lady decided to open up her window and called for the next customer. She was EXTREMELY RUDE! Almost turned me away! I ended up telling her that I will take some time to look on the website myself because she seemed as though she didn't want to be of help, and was rushing me to make a decision (no one was waiting behind me). I quickly browse the web and decided to wait for the older gentleman as I first intended to. I am glad I did. He was VERY Helpful! We got seats very close to the ice for very low cost! He also offered his recommendations! Event: We opted for the 11AM event, large turn out, but mostly longer children as to be expected for that time during school hours. Lots of lighting & stage effects being utilized which I love. However, this maybe not safe for someone who struggles with seizure disorders. Concession Stands: As you can imagine, plenty of vendors to get ALL of your money with all the Disney on Ice Sovereign. Food: We opted for quick bites and cotton candies. Plenty of junk food to choose from! Parking: Limited street parking available. Near by lots available for a fee. Closer ones cost more. We opted for one diagonal the venue for $20, I believe it was card only. Also, the metro link has a stop right next to the venue's location! I've opted for that option before to cut cost. Recommendations: Kiddos enjoyed it and so did we! Definitely worth checking a show out!

The best hockey stadium in the world. Only fitting for the best fans in the world. I can say this. Hockey fans are so much better and lively than baseball fans. St Louis is known as a baseball city. They may want to rethink that. Customer service was wonderful all night. From the time I walked in until the time I left the building. They did an amazing job to make you feel welcome and appreciated. The nachos were good, but not great. The chips and cheese were very good. The meat was okay, but something was off with the meat in my opinion. It wasn't bad. It might have been the texture for me. The jalapeños were great. The portion size was huge. The refillable soda was huge. I thought I was going to get a refill. I couldn't even finish my Mellow Yellow soda. The only disappointing part it was the last game of the season. I enjoyed everything tremendously.

Review: Jan 2026 The experience was everything I expected…read moreand more! I went to Alicia Keys Broadway Play "Hell's Kitchen." She is my childhood/ adulthood favorite. Of course the event was on one of the coldest night we experience this past Winter in STL. For fashion, I decided to ditch my bulky coat in the truck and take the lighter instead. Fortunately, I arrived early and was able to find street parking close by and didn't have to endure the bitter cold too long Design: The architectural designs are breathe taken! It's something about "antique designs that I am always fascinated with. Food: My friend & I decided to have dinner at the restaurant next door (don't remember the name). I wanted to grab a drink at the Fox, however didn't want to miss out on any of the play standing in long lines. Service: Everyone hustled to get in after going through the metal detector or being scanned by security. There were staff members present to guide you to your seat. Overall Experience: I truly enjoyed myself. I definitely will be back!

Back after a hiatus secondary to politics, the Midwest Salute to the Arts is usually the third…read moreweekend in August. This free art fair has approximately 100 artists showcasing their work. While it does not have the same atmosphere as Art on the Square, I actually like it better because prices are more reasonable. Parking is plentiful and there is live music and food. The one downside to it is that they have many of the same artists year after year. I guess the good thing is that the artists keep coming back because it is so good, but at the same time, for the consumer, it can get boring. But if you cannot decide and you have to walk away, chances are you could always get it next year.

I also loved the live music playing before the show even started. The whole atmosphere was such a vibe!

It's been a while since I have watched a show at the Muny. On this visit it was the classic…read moremusical, "South Pacific." The Muny is an outdoor theater in beautiful Forest Park. Parking can be a little crazy, but we were able to park in the lower and free parking lot. If you are disabled, you may want to get there extremely early or have someone drop you off. Even the closest disabled parking spot, it's still going to be a bit of a walk. There are lots of ramps and special disabled seating, if needed. Otherwise expect steps without a railing. The staff is very accommodating. There's really not a bad seat in the house, even the free seats are fairly good. The seats are quite close together so if you are a larger person, it's a tight fit if you have people on either side. The performance was incredibly professional and very good. The sound system and lighting were just right. I believe most shows start at 8 PM and have an intermission. When the shows are rather full, expect quite a wait to depart the area. It's definitely a must do in the Summer.
