There are two ways to experience the festival:
-
VIP Early Access — Get in at 3 p.m., beat the crowd, and head up to the VIP level overlooking the arena floor. You’ll enjoy exclusive bites from San Antonio’s UNESCO City of Gastronomy Chef Ambassadors, plus special drink options at the cash bar.
-
General Admission — Join the party at 4 p.m. but hang out at the welcome lounge starting at 3 p.m. and enjoy everything the arena floor has to offer until 7 p.m. Pro tip: get there a little early so you don’t miss the Al Frugoni welcome.

Beyond the food and music, the festival is about community. KSAT 12 will be making a donation in the event’s name to the Community Foundation of the Texas Hill Country, helping support neighbors across the region impacted by the devasting July 4th floods.
