Guide to San Antonio's Pride weekend
Pride unfurls this weekend, headlined by the official festival and parade plus a slate of fun offshoot events.
The big picture: Pride events are rooted in the 1969 Stonewall Riots, also known as the Stonewall Uprising, in New York City.
Zoom in: Pride San Antonio organizes Pride Bigger Than Texas, which consists of a festival and parade on Saturday.
The Pride Festival at Crockett Park includes vendors, live music, a health fair and more, 11am-7pm. Tickets cost $13 during presale and $15 the day of the event.
The parade, which travels down Main Avenue starting at 9pm, is free to watch — though some businesses along the newly designated Pride Cultural Heritage District may charge for seating at their properties.
State of play: This weekend's calendar is filled with more opportunities to celebrate.
🪩 Dance the night away at River North Icehouse, which will host five queer DJs on Friday, 8pm-2am.
