Civic Park is right next to the OFallon pool so we could hear some music from there (which I liked). I also like that they have a paved walking area, a covered pavilion, picnic tables and 2 play areas (one in sun, one in a wooded/shaded area). It's not a huge park, but it's great for a picnic or walking. If you are in the area, stop by and enjoy it!

This year the festival ran from July 2nd - July 4th…read more Came here for our 4th of July festivities. We arrived semi late. We missed the Carolina Liar concert, but we got here in the nick of time to hear Vertical Horizon. Those are two bands I absolutely love. When we arrived, we had prepped for the O'Fallon parking wars and assumed we'd get there right before or during the fireworks. Luckily, that didn't turn out to be the case at all. The time we left my boyfriend's parents to the time we got to the park was about 10 minutes. I was surprised after hearing from Jason and his dad what chaos it usually was. We paid $5 for parking and went on our way. Making our way to the park, you could hear the music from Vertical Horizon. The path that took us there was not a very long walk at all. It was very busy with lots of people coming to and from the area though. Tents with sprinklers in them were set up. They provided mist for people to walk through to cool them off from the extreme temperatures. I took advantage of that. The path was clean too. I was glad to see people had not littered the site. The park had a fair in it. There were carnival rides and concession vendors everywhere.It was easy to maneuver through. This was a very family oriented affair. Kids were having a lot of fun playing the carnival games, and hoards of teens were congregating together in various areas as you walked through the maze that made up the park. It appeared that some of the vendors were with the carnival and others were local from O'Fallon. Given that some of the prices fluctuated from vendor to vendor. You would go to one vendor that would sell water for $1, then a couple of vendors down, there would be water for sell for $2. I got jipped needless to say and bought the $2 water before discovering the $1 water. I think there should be one set price across the board for what vendors sell to the public. That way people don't find out the hard way like I did and end up paying for the more expensive item. The carnival rides seemed fun. They were very busy and seemed to be the standard run of the mill kind of rides that you would find at any carnival. They had a ferris wheel, kiddy rides, and thrill rides for those who dare. Tickets cost a dollar per ticket. 4 tickets = $4. That was pretty much the price for almost every ride I noticed. Come here with cash because they won't accept credit or debit. I have to point this out, but... Holy hot damn!!!!! I would never have let my daughter (if I had one) out of the house wearing what some of those little tweens were wearing. Girls that could not have been older than 14 were wearing see through tops and belly shirts. There were several girls that had shorts riding up their asses too! I know it is the summer, but honestly they were downright disgusting and distasteful. I would give a long lecture to any parent who let their kids out of the house looking like they did. I'm sorry, I just had to point that out. Finally the fireworks display that we came here to see... What a beautiful site it was. They put on a spectacular display for all the festival goers. The fireworks show lasted about 20 minutes, and considering the cancellations that had occurred all across the Saint Louis area and beyond, I was very happy and surprised they put on a show at all. There had been so many forest fires going on and a major drought that made the weather conditions very unfavorable to have them. O'Fallon took the risk, and it turned out beautifully. I'd most certainly come back. It's definitely worth the trip to take if you live in the city.

I chose a different morning time when bikers came zooming along preparing for serious rides.

It was serene, peaceful and beautiful.

This trail is a linear trail so you're either going to do an out and back or your can opt to walk around the rest of the park via sidewalks and road. It is labeled as a black diamond but I would call it a "Missouri black diamond." The hills can be steep for some but the trail is plenty wide enough to step to the side and catch your breath, if you need.

Subject: Request for Date Change - Faust Park Reservation (04/04/26)…read more I understand and respect that policies and regulations are in place for a reason. However, I am respectfully requesting that an exception be considered in our situation. Our family hosts an annual Easter event each year at Faust Park, and we currently have a reservation scheduled for April 4, 2026. Unfortunately, the forecast is showing a 95% chance of rain for that day, which would significantly impact our ability to safely and comfortably host our gathering. We have already begun exploring alternative options, including moving the event to a family member's home, but this presents challenges given the size of our gathering. Instead of canceling outright, we reached out to request a date change to August 8, 2026, which we understand is available. We were informed that changes or refunds require a 30-day notice. However, it is difficult to predict severe weather conditions that far in advance. Our request is not to cancel without cause, but simply to move our reservation to another available date so we can continue to use and support your facility. As returning customers, we value hosting our event at Faust Park and were hoping there might be some flexibility under these unforeseen circumstances. We sincerely hope a reasonable solution can be reached. Thank you for your time and consideration. I look forward to your response. Sincerely, Lashawn Lee
