Three Stars over the Garden celebrates the Garden's 150th anniversary in rocking style with a ticketed outdoor concert featuring “The Father of Rock and Roll,” Chuck Berry. The concert is also a tribute to two other notable St. Louisans: Garden founder Henry Shaw and Dr. Peter H. Raven, the Garden's president for over 38 years and world-renowned botanist. Berry, Raven, and Shaw are stars on the St. Louis Walk of Fame in the Delmar Loop.

Can I take pictures?
Yes, snapshots are permitted during the concert for personal use only; absolutely no commercial usage allowed.

Can I record video or audio of the concert?
Absolutely no recording is permitted.

Can I use a flash?
The concert stage is lit, so a flash may not be necessary. We ask that you please use discretion so as not to disrupt the event for other guests.

Can I use a tripod?
As the event is lawn seating, usage of a tripod or monopod may hinder viewing for other guests, so we ask that you refrain from using both in the immediate concert area. Tripods and monpods may be used only along the far back perimeter of the amphitheater seating area, where they will not cause an obstruction.
