Missouri, Arkansas, & Kansas AIRS Affiliate (MAK-AIRS) is very excited that the 2016 AIRS Conference is taking place in St. Louis. We look forward to a great conference and hope all attending take in some sightseeing during your visit. So welcome to St. Lou!  

You’ll definitely recognize St. Louis as a Baseball City. Home of the St. Louis Cardinals,  one of the most successful franchises in baseball history, the Cardinals have won 11 World Series championships, 19 National League pennants, and 13 division titles. St. Louisans’ are crazy about their Cardinals!

No matter whether you’re an avid baseball fan or just looking for a fun destination, you’re sure to enjoy a visit to St. Louis Cardinals Busch Stadium and adjoining Ballpark Village.   The baseball complex is just one mile directly up Market Street from the Union Station Conference Hotel.  A short cab ride will get you to the center of St. Louis’ “Cardinals fever” experience.

Enjoy a Cardinals home game, as they play Arizona Diamondbacks (5/20 – 5/22) and Chicago Cubs (5/23 – 5/25). Busch Stadium is absolutely beautiful, with open seating and direct views of the iconic Arch from every angle. Reasonable seat prices are available or you can splurge for the ultimate event in an all-inclusive seating area.  Not up for a game?  Try a Busch Stadium tour, available 3-4 times daily depending on game day start times. It’s a super way to experience a professional baseball stadium, including visiting the Radio Booth, Redbird Club, and actually walking on the field & entering the Cardinals dugout.   Tickets are $18 for adults, with some applicable discounts. Details for single game tickets and stadium tours are available online or by calling (314) 345-9000.

Ballpark Village is also a great venue, both inside & outside, for enjoying food, drinks and a sports viewing experience! And don’t leave without stopping to visit the Cardinals Hall of Fame Museum. This sports anchored entertainment district is located right next to Busch Stadium.
