Celebrate 100 years of America’s most storied highway at the Missouri History Museum’s Route 66 100th Anniversary Festival. For one full week, Forest Park becomes a hub for all things Mother Road—from the landscapes and small-town charms that shaped the journey to the real challenges some travelers faced along the way.
Explore a lineup of concerts, classic car displays, documentary screenings, guest presentations, and hands-on family activities. Pedal a themed 6.6-mile bike ride, dig into Route 66 history, and even design your own cardboard car for a drive-in movie night. Whether you’re a lifelong road tripper or gearing up for your first cruise down the Main Street of America, this festival invites you to honor a century of travel, culture, and adventure.
