18Rails

18Rails is a private event venue at City Foundry in Midtown St. Louis, offering a flexible setting for weddings, corporate gatherings, social celebrations and non-profit events. Its industrial character is paired with contemporary finishes and a full wall of windows, giving organisers a distinctive backdrop with natural light. The open layout can be adapted for different event formats, from a seated dinner or ceremony to a standing reception or cocktail gathering.

The venue has space for ceremonies of up to 80 guests, seated events for up to 350 and cocktail-style events for as many as 700. Organisers can arrange a tour and discuss the event with the venue team, who can assist with timing, room design, menus and supplier coordination. Day-of support is available, and the venue includes a green room, modern audio-visual equipment, custom-colour LED lighting and on-site parking.

Food and drink are provided through the venue's exclusive catering partner, Butler's Pantry, with menu options and service formats available for different occasions. Packages are offered for weddings, social events, daytime functions and cocktail receptions. The venue sits within City Foundry, near its food hall, restaurants and entertainment attractions, giving event planners options for extending a programme or arranging additional guest experiences. Valet and shuttle services are also available through local partners. With its adaptable room, event support and catering arrangements, 18Rails can host both formal celebrations and business events in one central St. Louis location.
