Holidays Back in Full Festive Swing in San Antonio

SAN ANTONIO, Nov. 18, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- The return of traditional favorites and new exciting additions promise to make San Antonio the go-to destination for the holidays.

Can't miss the San Antonio River Walk holidays, with the return of the Parade, caroling and 100,000 twinkling lights.

New this year is Lightscape at the San Antonio Botanical Garden, November 19 – January 2. This massive light extravaganza debuts in Texas after sold out shows in the UK. Visitors can enjoy the unique flora of the 38-acre gardens immersed in the magical glow of thousands of twinkling lights and displays set along a beautifully illuminated one-mile path. The show includes installations unique to Texas created by local and international artists.

Visitors will not want to miss the cherished River Walk activities – kicking off with the return of the Ford Holiday Parade November 26 under 100,000 multicolored lights twinkling above the winding River Walk, draping from some 300-year cypress trees and creating a magical canopy through January 10. For the parade itself, more than 20 highly decorated barges with costumed characters, music and more float by entertaining all. San Antonio's holiday spirit on the River Walk continues after the parade. The first three weekends of December, the Ford Fiesta de las Luminarias returns with more than 2,000 luminarias (small sand-filled bags with candles) lining the banks of the River Walk as singers from the Ford Holiday Boat Caroling float by on the river (December 2-23).

A city of blended cultures and always in Fiesta-mode, activities can be found across San Antonio for all tastes and ages. Here is a sampling of what the Alamo City has lined up for 2021:

  • The Alamo – the Alamo grounds will be decorated with festive lights and decorated tree in the plaza, November 19 – January 3. Homemade Christmas will feature historical crafts, 19th century trades, and carols to showcase Texans celebrated Christmas in the mid-1800s.
  • Pearl – Celebrate the season with Holiday Night Markets, Chanukah celebration, Posada carols, and more, starting November 19.
  • Morgan's Wonderland – the world's only ultra-accessible theme park hosts Wonderland Christmas on 13 select evenings November through Dec. 23.
