Location and Transportation

Venue Address

Avenue of the Saints Amphitheater and Event Center

3357 St. Charles Rd

Saint Charles, Iowa 50240

The venue sits about 30 miles south of Des Moines, making it a convenient countryside escape for central Iowa. You’ll find it at the edge of Saint Charles, surrounded by scenic rural landscapes.

• Parking: On-site parking is available. Plan to arrive early to find a spot and make the short walk to the amphitheater.
• Public Transit: Limited public transit options available.
• Rideshare & Dropoff: Coordinate pickup and dropoff near the main entrance.

Arrival Recommendations

Plan to arrive 60–90 minutes before showtime. This gives you time to park, meet your group, and choose your spot on the lawn before the music starts. If you’re attending a wedding or private event, arriving early ensures a smooth check-in and time to settle in.

This is an outdoor venue, so be ready for variable Iowa weather—sun, wind, or a quick rain shower can move through. Bring layers or a light jacket for cooler evenings, and consider sun protection during daytime events. The amphitheater is largely on level ground, with a bit of walking from the parking area to the lawn.

Because public transit is limited, driving is recommended. If you’re using rideshare, set a pickup location near the main entrance and allow extra time after the show when demand is high. For groups, designate a meetup spot like the Talk Shop Lounge or a visible landmark in the parking area.

Venue Navigation

The layout is straightforward: an outdoor amphitheater space for concerts and ceremonies, supported by the indoor Talk Shop Lounge for gathering, food, and beverages. The combination gives you indoor comfort and outdoor atmosphere in one destination.

Concessions and drinks are available at the Talk Shop Lounge. If you plan to walk the grounds to find your favorite view, wear comfortable footwear suitable for lawn and pathways. For private events, signage and staff typically direct guests to ceremony areas, reception spaces, and lounges.

Security and Policies

• Bag Policy: Limited information available — please review your event details or check the venue’s official communications before you go.
• Prohibited Items: Limited information available — refer to your event confirmation for any restrictions that may apply.
• Re-entry Policy: No re-entry once you exit the venue.
• Service Animals: ADA-compliant service animals are welcome.

Post-Purchase Tips — Be Ready for Event Day

• Download your tickets before arriving — cell service can be limited.
• Bring a valid ID and cashless payment option.
• Charge your phone fully.
• Review venue policies in advance.
• Be weather-ready for an outdoor amphitheater — pack layers, sunscreen, or a rain jacket as needed.
• Plan extra time for the drive; rural routes can be dark after evening events, so confirm your pickup point if using rideshare.

Pre-Event Planning

Make it a full outing by arriving early to enjoy the countryside views and sunset from the amphitheater grounds. If you’re meeting friends, the Talk Shop Lounge is a convenient indoor gathering spot to connect over food and drinks before the show or ceremony.

Driving from Des Moines? Consider building in buffer time for traffic and parking, then relax once you arrive. For groups, coordinate a shared ride or caravan and choose a clear meetup point—either in the parking area or at the Talk Shop Lounge—so everyone can find each other easily.

Accessibility

Accessibility information specific to the venue is limited. The amphitheater grounds are mostly level, which may make general movement easier for some guests. For detailed accommodations and accessible seating locations, consult your event materials or contact the venue directly.

For assistance choosing accessible seating, contact Ticket Purchase for personalized support before purchasing.

Dining Options

The Talk Shop Lounge offers food and beverages on site, giving you an easy and comfortable place to grab a bite or drink before or during your event. It’s a practical option if you prefer an indoor setting to complement the outdoor amphitheater experience.

For weddings and private events, the lounge can also serve as a central gathering area—ideal for socializing between ceremony and reception activities.
