Summary
St. Louis Mayor Cara Spencer cleared up confusion over bar and restaurant closing times during Pride weekend, clarifying that businesses can stay open past midnight—no law requires shutdowns. Police Chief Robert Tracy assured crowds that extra officers will ensure safety, debunking last year’s disruptions as not representative of the community. Local bars plan to keep regular hours with their own safety measures, while parts of Manchester Avenue will be closed for festivities. A juvenile curfew applies to those under 18, who must be home or with parents in Forest Park Southeast, with reunification centers available. Pride organizers are confident this year’s celebration will be safe and joyful, urging everyone to show up as their true selves.
