Board hears requests to declare Oktoberfest and 'St. Louis 2026' festival zones
Summary
The clerk read requests to declare two festival zones—Oktoberfest at Soulard Market (Oct. 5–13) and 'St. Louis 2026' on Sept. 6—both presented for approval subject to conditions; timing and locations were given but no final vote on the events was recorded in the transcript.
At the Aug. 4 meeting, the clerk read two requests from the Office of Special Events seeking designation of festival zones in the city. The first request was for Oktoberfest at Soulard Market to be held Oct. 5–13, 8 a.m. to 5 p.m., at Soulard Market Park (Lafayette between 7th and 9th). The second request was for "St. Louis 2026" on Sept. 6 from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m. on South Wharf between Chouteau and Victor.
The clerk presented both items "to be approved subject to certain conditions," but the transcript does not record a separate motion or vote on those specific festival-zone requests during this meeting. The board was given the event dates and locations for consideration and potential conditional approval.
