Downtown St. Louis is the place to be this April for anyone who loves sports. The month is filled with thrills and action whether you’re a die-hard Cardinals, Blues, City SC, or Battlehawks fan. Ride Metro Transit to the games and avoid the stress of trying to navigate downtown parking, traffic, road construction and street closures.

The Must-Attend Games of April

There’s no shortage of thrilling sports action this month! Here are some highlighted events to mark on your calendar and plan your transit ride for game day:

• Cardinals Season Opener | March 27 at Busch Stadium – Even though this takes place in March, we had to include our favorite annual tradition. The Cardinals have eleven home games in April.

• St. Louis Blues Playoff Push | April 1, 3, 5, 15 – The Blues have four more home games at Enterprise Center as they make a run for the Stanley Cup playoffs.

• City SC Matches | April 13, 19 – Head to the pitch as they take on Columbus and Vancouver.

• Return of the Battlehawks | April 6, 13, 26 – Get ready to Ka’ Kaw at The Dome as football returns to St. Louis with three big games.

• NCAA Men’s Frozen Four | April 10-12 – See the best of the best college hockey players face off at Enterprise Center.

No matter which team you’re rooting for, Metro Transit gets you steps away from the action.
