Or explore some of the top-rated attractions the city has to offer on your own, many of which are located right at the St. Louis Union Station Hotel—the location of the 2023 Seminar.
From daily 3-D light shows in the spectacular Grand Hall lobby of the hotel to an onsite indoors rope course, 18-hole mini-golf course and a classic amusement park style carousel, there's no shortage of fun to be had between sessions.
At 630 feet tall, the city's iconic Gateway Arch is America’s tallest monument. Take a tram ride to the top, explore the museum or take a riverboat tour to take it all in.
Catch a ballgame at the 46,000 seat retro-style downtown ballpark. Currently scheduled to play against the home team of the St. Louis Cardinals during the 2023 Seminar are the Washington Nationals and the Miami Marlins.
