ST. LOUIS (September 24, 2020) — The Riverboats at the Gateway Arch are set to host St. Louis’ only floating concert series, Rock the Dock presented by 4 Hands Brewing Company and 1220 Spirits, Sundays this fall.

A celebration of St. Louis, Rock the Dock is a unique way to safely enjoy live musical performances by some of St. Louis’ most popular bands while taking in incredible views of downtown St. Louis, the Gateway Arch and the Mississippi River from the riverboat dock. Concertgoers will be seated at reserved, socially distanced tables, where they can enjoy a curated barbeque menu and a selection of drinks from 4 Hands Brewing Company and 1220 Spirits. Bands will perform from an elevated space next to the dock so the audience will have a great view while they take in some long-awaited live music.

”We are very excited to introduce this new way to celebrate St. Louis’ live music, food and drink scene on the St. Louis Riverfront,” said Robert Hopkins, director of operations at the Riverboats at the Gateway Arch. “Our top priority is to keep our visitors, team members and featured bands safe during this pandemic, and we have designed a plan that will accomplish that and allow everyone to have fun at the same time.”

The Riverboats are following all of the policies and procedures put in place by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), the City of St. Louis Department of Health, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), and the United States Coast Guard. For the safety of visitors and team members, face coverings are required to be worn by anyone age 9 and older and social distancing guidelines must be practiced.
