ST. LOUIS (KMOX) - Build-A-Bear Workshop is opening a new store in downtown St. Louis this weekend, right next to its new World "Bearquarters" near Union Station, the St. Louis Wheel and St. Louis Aquarium.
To celebrate the grand opening on Saturday, Jan. 4, Build-A-Bear will have a full day of fun-filled activities starting with a ribbon-cutting ceremony at 9:55 a.m.
Build-A-Bear Workshop announced earlier this year that it would be moving its global headquarters to downtown St. Louis, from Overland, Mo. It will begin operating at the Grand Central building on 18th Street near Union Station in the spring of 2020.
