San Antonio Coffee Festival will return to Civic Park at Hemisfair on Saturday, Feb. 7, marking its 13th year celebrating the pick-me-up beverage in the Alamo City.
The festival involves a full day of tasting and learning about coffee and will include more vendors and tastings than ever before, according to organizers. This year’s installment will run 10 a.m.-3 p.m. Tickets are on sale now on the San Antonio Coffee Festival website, starting at $25.
“The 2026 festival will feature its largest roster of roasters to date, with more than 30 coffee roasters from San Antonio, the Hill Country and across Texas offering samples throughout the day,” festival organizers said in an emailed statement.
Tastings will represent a wide range of roasts, origins and brewing styles, making for the most robust tasting experience in the festival’s history, organizers added.
The festival also will offer a full day of coffee workshops, sponsored by the AARP. These will include education on home brewing techniques, tasting fundamentals and other topics.
Workshops will take place throughout the day.
In addition to its many coffee roasters, the festival will include booths of food vendors and artisans selling coffee-inspired goods, skincare, syrups, local honey, pop art, treats, fresh flowers and more.
Throughout the day, acts including Bexar Brass, Blackbird Sing, Dub Gideon, Claudette and the Guys, Gladhatter’s Jazz Band and The Noah Peterson Quartet will perform live music. New activations throughout the park will include a Cafe Tulum DJ area and a pop-up bookstore.
General Admission ticket holders receive a flight of six coffee samples and a commemorative ceramic mini-mug. VIP ticket ($42) holders receive 10 coffee samples, early access and a full-size commemorative mug.
“Each year, San Antonio’s coffee community continues to grow and evolve, and this festival reflects that momentum,” festival founder Linda Brewster said in a statement. “With more roasters, more coffee to experience, and an incredible setting at Civic Park, 2026 is shaping up to be our most exciting year yet.”
