Mediterranean Event Pavilion

World’s Fair Pavilion in St. Louis

Open-air Mediterranean pavilion in Forest Park

The World’s Fair Pavilion has been one of Forest Park’s most popular attractions since it was built in 1909. It was built using proceeds from the 1904 World’s Fair in St. Louis, hence its name! This space commands your attention before you even reach the doors: it sits on top of Government Hill, with views of the Boathouse, Post-Dispatch Lake and the Emerson Grand Basin that you and your guests can enjoy during any event. There is ample space, indoors and out, for guests to spread out, making it perfect for a large wedding full of family and friends, or even for a charity fundraiser!
