San Antonio is rolling out the red carpet for moms this weekend with a slew of Mother's Day events that range from food festivals to concerts. Mother's Day, falling on Sunday, May 12, is looking extra festive this year with the weekend buzzing with activities across the city, as per KSAT.
The lineup includes the Texas Eats Food Festival on May 11 at Smoke BBQ and a double dose of Luke Combs at the Alamodome on May 10 and 11. For those looking to take a stroll down memory lane, the Nostalgia Con will open its doors at the Henry B. González Convention Center. With expected sellout crowds, the city is prepping for a deluge of visitors and has thus advised planning ahead for potential traffic snarls.
But it's not just about food and music. Cultural experiences are on the menu with the Asian Festival on May 11 celebrating Asian American and Pacific Islander Heritage Month at La Villita. Looking for something more on the sporty side? The Brahmas are taking on the Houston Roughnecks at the Alamodome on the big day itself, according to KSAT.
For those seeking a more tranquil way to honor mom, San Antonio has you covered with picturesque dining options on the River Walk. From May 7 to 9, the Stella Artois Drift & Dine offers a mobile feast courtesy of the city's river barges. This unique culinary event promises an "unforgettable evening," in the words of Visit San Antonio, and let's be honest—who wouldn't enjoy great food and vibes while floating down the river?
City pools are opening up for pre-season dips starting May 11, just in time to beat the heat. It's a chance to kick back as the Parks and Recreation Department throws open the gates at 11 locations citywide, says KSAT. With such a varied bouquet of events, San Antonio is poised to create lifelong memories this Mother's Day weekend.
