New Years Celebration in San Antonio
New Years Eve is the biggest time of the year for many places, and in the heart of Texas, this is especially true. San Antonio doesn’t just celebrate the upcoming year or the past on December 31st, but itself as well.
One of the biggest attractions to San Antonio is the Riverwalk. On NYE, from 6 until 12:30 AM, families, friends, neighbors, and visitors all join at South Alamo between Market and Durango and in La Villita to “Celebrate San Antonio”. With free entertainment on 6 stages, as well as a children’s area, carnival games, and over 50 food and beverage booths, everything you need for the biggest night of the year is here. This event is a great place for tourists to get a real feel for the city, and the locals of San Antonio to revel in the holiday from “home”.
For those new to San Antonio, it is important to know that music is a huge part of culture. NYE is a perfect time to participate in it, as many venues in the area will be hosing concerts. From world-renowned acts such as Los Desperadoz at the Graham Central Station to local favorites like Jack Ingram in the “Best of Texas” concert series, the city has every avenue covered.

If you want music that you can gyrate to pulsating from speakers above and below your feet, the clubs of San Antonio raise the bar, so the speak. From upscale Black and White parties to ones catering to the young, sexy, and eager, there are scenes for everyone. It is best if you plan ahead—most places require that you purchase admission earlier than December 30th, and they sell out well before that. It is wise to research early if you are unsure what to do, or simply reserve your desired place ASAP if you know right away where you want to ring in 2008. There are ways to save time and money by checking out sites such as NewYearsEve.com, where you can get inside looks at clubs and the NYE parties, even purchase tickets to their events at discounted prices.
Food is also a major part of life in San Antonio, as the home an entire genre: Tex-Mex. Restaurants are creating special menus and festive additions, taking reservations as early as October for the NYE rush. Dining options can be as opulent or no-frills as you like, but all will be booked early, so reserve your table NOW!
