The countdown is now underway to the COLDEST and BOLDEST day party event in the land ---

THE GATEWAY CITY DERBY!

This event will take place at an exquisite location in St. Louis, the spectacular Palladium St. Louis, featuring a dynamic venue to enjoy your favorite cocktail. The Gateway City Derby is hosted by the St. Louis Alphas (Epsilon Lambda Chapter - St. Louis, MO) and the East St. Louis Alphas (Delta Epsilon Lambda - East St. Louis, IL). We invite all derby party fans to get dressed up and come experience the pageantry and elegance of the Derby event, and party to great music from one of the best DJs in the area.

​

If you're not going to be in Louisville for the race, then make plans to enjoy a Derby Watch Party Experience like no other.  This will be a spectacular event that only the Men of Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity could produce for your enjoyment.

​

But the Experience is not over after the Race!  Join us the next day for the Gateway City Derby Jazz Brunch!  This year, it will be at the Hotel Saint Louis, our guest host hotel.  So come out and enjoy some good food and great music on Sunday afternoon.
