A celebration on Historic Route 66 designed to remember the role Springfield played in the history of Route 66, and the fact that the road was named here.

🐾 Please consider: the majority of the festival footprint is on pavement and sidewalks, which can be extra hot on pets' paws & even cause burns. Please consider if your pets might be happier and safer at home in the shade or AC. And please NEVER leave your pet in a parked car!

Springfield Little Theatre will once again perform before the Birthplace of Route 66 Parade on the Chevy Dealers of the Ozarks Stage in Park Central Square at 5 p.m. this evening!
