The Mississippi Greenway will be completely closed from the Eads Bridge to the Arch grand staircase all day Saturday June 11, 2016 for the St. Louis Brewers Guild Heritage Festival.

This is a ticketed event, and only people holding tickets will be able to enter the area.

Here is what you need to know about visiting the Arch grounds, Riverfront, and Laclede’s Landing on June 11, 2016:

Access to the Arch grounds and southern portion of the greenway:
The greenway will be open for everyone from the Arch grand staircase south to Chouteau Ave. You can access the Arch grounds via Walnut Street, then walk down the grand staircase to the southern portion of the greenway along the riverfront.  You can also enter via Chouteau Avenue, but parking will be limited on the levee due to recent flooding.

Access via Metrolink:
People with tickets to the Brewer’s Guild Heritage Festival can use the Laclede’s Landing MetroLink Station to access the event. People who want to visit Laclede’s Landing can also use this station, but will be unable to connect with the greenway south of the Eads Bridge.

People who want to visit the Arch Grounds and Riverfront should exit at the 8th and Pine Street MetroLink Station and enter via Walnut street as described above.

Accessibility:
People with limited mobility or who use a wheelchair, can only access the Riverfront via Chouteau Ave.

Parking:
There will be some levee parking available this weekend, but it may be limited due to recent flooding. The entrance to the parking lot is at the intersection of South Poplar Street and Leonor K. Sullivan Blvd. People with tickets to the Brewers Guild Heritage Festival can park on Laclede’s Landing. Others should park in any of the preferred parking lots in downtown St. Louis.
