My sis told me later a vintage fire truck had broken down and was causing stoppage of the parade. She was watching on TV. She said the KSAT hosts were scrambling to fill time. We are not going to bother to attend these parades next year. It's better and easier on TV.

You couldn't go to the grass area behind us because it was wristband only but the grass area across the street from us had TONS of free samples, raffles, and games to win a medal. Next time we come, we may not stay as long as we did. Once it gets to the 10th high school band and dance/cheer team, it gets a bit repetitive . The UT band was awesome UTSA should've outdone them since it's our city's event tho.

There just wasn't a lot to do at this year's Luminaria. I have been a couple of times in the past…read moreand had a great time. There just wasn't a lot to experience this year. Totally not impressed. There was one spot for beer, and they weren't very adventurous on the food items. They had chicken or beef kebabs for $10, some gorditas, and hot pretzels, but not a whole lot more. We got there early and went into one of the venues to watch an awesome local band called Slowpoke who had two guest violinists, and a cellist. They were really great, and it was the highlight of the evening. When we emerged however, Hemisfair Park was PACKED to the hilt with people. The food and drink booths took credit cards, so that was a huge plus. I'm going to take a pass on Luminaria or the next few years in hopes that they improve.

Came out for Game 1 of the playoffs to watch the San Antonio Spurs and overall, it was an awesome…read moreexperience. The atmosphere inside the stadium was electric fans were into it, music was on point, and you could really feel that playoff energy. One of the biggest wins for me was the front row parking super clutch and made the whole night smoother. Drinks were solid (a little pricey, but expected at a game), and the restrooms were surprisingly clean considering how packed it was. On a personal note, I even connected with someone there that could turn into a great business opportunity, so that made the night even more worth it. Only downside was the service. It felt slow and a bit unorganized at times, especially when trying to get attention or place orders. Overall, great vibes, great crowd, and a memorable nighteven walked out with a win on my bet. I'd definitely come back, just hoping the service improves next time.

Home of the San Antonio Spurs! Go Spurs Go! This venue does hold other events such as concerts,…read morecomedy shows, etc. The surrounding area is sketchy and industrial feels and is about 15 minutes away from downtown. Parking on-site varies and starts at $20 and up depending on the event. Traffic does get crazy but the police have it strategical planned well. Very organized! Staff is always friendly and helpful! Plenty of food options and the average stadium pricing. As far as viewing an event, there is a bad seat in the house for the view BUT as you go higher up, the stairs are pretty steep.

Nice theater!! We attended the Children's Ballet of San Antonio's production of Don Quixote. The…read morebox office and entry to the theater were very organized and efficient. They had a bar open and some snacks available in the lobby. The seating seemed like the view would be pretty decent from most seats and plenty of ushers to guide guests to their seats. On the flyer it looks like Phantom of the Opera may be here sometime in 2026 so would love to attend! Parked in the garage located directly behind the theater, it was $10 for the duration of the show.

Walking into the Magestic is truly magically as you feel transported back in time, it's truly a San Antonio gem! It's very beautiful. We got a couple of drinks from the bar which were grossly expensive, I got a margarita and my husband got a glass of wine, $42, before tip! Absolutely ridiculous. Also, I tried to get in line for the women's bathroom, but the stench that came out was horrendous, they definitely need to update their air fresheners. Will hopefully be back for another show, but will be getting drinks prior to arriving at the theatre.

Amazing venue and great sound quality!…read more The Tobin offers an upscale experience with friendly staff, a range of price points, and nice sound quality. Prepaid garage or valet parking options are available as well as a convenient parking lot a short walk away. The show was loud, especially for an acoustic performance, but the sound quality was great. Overall, there is a variety of price points, so you can splurge on club seating with table service, or choose the balcony to save the piggy bank. We sat in the mezzanine section however next time I would prefer to sit closer to the stage. While some of the ticket prices were on the high side, you can sign up for the newsletter to receive discounts on upcoming shows. The price of drinks was outrageous but sadly typical for a concert. I did not order food or beverages but be sure you view the menu / price list ahead of your visit. There was no meet & greet or photo opportunity offered for this event but I hope that is an option at future events. Definitely consider the Tobin when your favorite band is in town!

I will say if you go for an orchestra, avoid the lower orchestra outer edge seats as there's no exit aisle. You have to walk past your entire row to get to the spot if you are a bigger man. Most shows will have an intermission which allows you to get up, use RR, grab a quick snack and get back to your seat in time for the action. Modern meets classic. Classic exterior, modern exterior and interior. I suggest coming for a classical music performance and when coming with a date, sit in the mezzanine. Great view and feels more intimate.

For that much cash it should be good, right. The following brands were not even there: GMC, Cadillac, Honda, BMW, MINI, Infiniti, Volvo, Porsche, Volkswagen, Tesla (or any other all electric brand), Alfa Romeo, Bentley, Rolls Royce, Range Rover, Ferrari (I'm sure there's others I can't think of). Most of the brands that were there only had a few cars and none of the future upcoming vehicles. No vendors of aftermarket stuff, waxes, or other fun stuff. They should be embarrassed charging for this or calling it an Auto Show.
