If you’re headed to downtown St. Louis on Saturday or to the Dogtown neighborhood on Sunday, Metro Transit makes it easy for you to enjoy all of the fun and festivities without worrying about navigating street closures, dealing with traffic and finding a place to park.<\/p>\n

St. Patrick’s Day Parade and Run in Downtown St. Louis<\/u><\/h3>\n

The St. Patrick\u2019s Day Parade in downtown St. Louis<\/a> kicks off at 12 p.m. at Market and 20th<\/sup> Streets on March 16. The St. Patrick\u2019s Day Run<\/a> begins at 9 a.m. that morning at the intersection of Broadway and Walnut Street. Park for free at any Metro Park-Ride lots in Missouri or Illinois, and take MetroLink to one of four MetroLink stations near the festivities.<\/p>\n

The Stadium and 8th<\/sup> & Pine MetroLink Stations are both a few blocks from the St. Patrick\u2019s Day Run starting line, and the Union Station, Civic Center, Stadium and 8th<\/sup> & Pine Stations are all within two to three blocks of the Market Street parade route.<\/p>\n

MetroBus is also a great option for getting to the parade downtown on March 16. There are several MetroBus routes that serve the Civic Center Transit Center in downtown St. Louis. Get off there and walk a couple blocks north to the parade route on Market Street.<\/p>\n

Due to the St. Patrick’s Day run and parade, there may be reroutes that impact your commute. We recommend checking Rider Alerts for the latest information on your route<\/a> before heading out to this weekend’s festivities.<\/p>\n
