Springfield, Missouri, the city of culture, hospitality, discovery, of creativity. The city of the Ozarks. Where the pulse of a city meets the exhale of the outdoors, Springfield, Missouri is a city with true heart. As the leaves turn golden and the air grows crisp, our city calls to those looking for a chance to experience a truly authentic destination, with no expectations except that you come and discover the Ozarks for yourself.
Maybe you want to wander the local city scene, warming up with a cup of cider between visits to local shops, eateries, fall festivals, or live performances. Or perhaps you're looking for time to stand still as you float the James River framed by fiery autumn foliage, hike or bike a lakefront trail lined with amber and scarlet, or discover the underground world in one of our many caves. Maybe you're driving through on our Mother Road, Route 66, catching glimpses of fall color along the way.
Whatever calls you to Springfield this season, we’re excited to show you our city. Because hidden gems are meant to be found—and fall is the perfect time to discover them.
