Next, check off a must-do for outdoor lovers with a trip to Fantastic Caverns, America’s only ride-thru cave, where it’s always a cool 60 degrees. Or take a float trip down the beautiful James River, soaking in the breathtaking scenery of the Ozarks. If a city vibe is more your style, catch a live performance at the Historic Gillioz Theatre, or explore Springfield’s vibrant craft brewery scene.
Springfield is also home to a piece of American history—the Birthplace of Route 66. The Mother Road runs right through downtown, where you can stop in at museums, dine at classic eateries, and visit quirky roadside attractions. And nothing says classic Americana like baseball—cheer on the Springfield Cardinals, the Double-A affiliate of the St. Louis Cardinals, right in our backyard.
For sports fans, the action doesn’t stop there! Experience the thrill of an indoor arena football game with the Ozark Lunkers, or dive into the nonstop collegiate sports scene at one of
Springfield’s many universities. Whether it’s football, basketball, or baseball, there’s always a team to root for in this sportsloving city.
