WordCamp US Conference Venue
America’s Center Convention Complex:
701 Convention Plaza, St. Louis, MO
All three days of the WordCamp US 2019 programming will be held at America’s Center Convention Complex. Located in the heart of downtown Saint Louis. The convention center is about 7 blocks from the Mississippi River and about 10 blocks from the historic Gateway Arch. The convention center is easy to get to no matter how you’re traveling. It is 15 minutes from the airport, has ample parking, and multiple options for public transit.
Parking
There is street parking as well as several parking garages around the venue. You can find information and find your favorite location at the venue’s page for directions & parking.
Public Transportation
The local public transit system is called Metro. There is a MetroLink (train) stop two blocks from the venue and several MetroBus stops. Make a quick transfer at the Civic Center Transit Center and you can get anywhere in the Saint Louis metro area.
If you want to see the sights, use Metro’s Downtown Trolley: a hop-on hop-off bus that runs every 20 minutes and stops at all of the downtown tourist spots.
WordCamp US Hotel Block
The Marriott St. Louis Grand: 800 Washington Avenue, St. Louis, MO. The Marriott St. Louis Grand is just steps away from the America’s Center Convention Complex.

Our hotel block is sold out, but we have a few other recommendations.
