The Bullock rooftop at Live! by Loews has been transformed into Loews on 66, a Route 66 inspired pop-up celebrating America’s most famous highway.

From classic diner favorites and Fitz's Root Beer floats, to lawn games and incredible rooftop views of Busch Stadium, this experience brings the spirit of the Mother Road right to downtown St. Louis.

America turns 250, and there may not be a better place to celebrate than right here in downtown St. Louis beneath the Gateway Arch. Celebrate Saint Louis

On July 3 & 4, Gateway Arch National Park will transform into one of the largest birthday celebrations in the country with two days of live music, a city-wide parade, local food and drinks, Innovation Village, fireworks over the Mississippi River, and two incredible 1,500-drone aerial shows lighting up the St. Louis skyline. The event is free and open to everyone.

As the Gateway to the West, St. Louis has always played a special role in America’s story, making this the perfect backdrop to celebrate our nation’s 250th birthday.

Who’s ready to experience America’s biggest birthday party under the Arch?

It’s hot and humid outside so we were naturally craving some shaved ice. For over 20 years has been keeping the people of Kirkwood cool on these hot days.

What’s your go to order?
