Event Planners’ Guide to Missouri
By D. Fran Morley
The Show Me State has lots to show off to planners. Major cities, like St. Louis and Kansas City, offer great choices in hotels, event venues, and attractions.

The state’s central location, with easy interstate access and major airports, makes it a prime location for either drive-in or fly-in gatherings.
