You’ll never find yourself at a lack of something to do at Hemisfair. Each month, year-round, there’s a fiesta, a celebration, music, art, a parade, and dancing in the streets here and in our surrounding neighborhoods – all within easy access by foot, bike or trolley.

Test your strength and your will, for instance, by conquering 952 steps to the top of the Tower of the Americas all for a worthwhile cause during the annual Tower Climb and Run. Watch the night turn to glowing light as more than 300,000 people flock to Hemisfair for Luminaria San Antonio, a grand celebration of art and artists. Or dress up your pooch in his or her funniest and flamboyant get-up for the King William Fair’s Fiesta Pooch Parade

And we haven’t even scratched the surface of things to do in and around Hemisfair.

So check here often to discover for yourself why natives and tourists alike, like Hemisfair. Our Calendar of Events is also a great resource for a list of fun, hip and hot events happening throughout all four corners of the Alamo City.
