Day of the Dead San Antonio: A Vibrant Weekend of Culture, Art, and Music on the River Walk

Halloween's almost here, but the fun doesnt need to stop! We're diving straight into the colorful spirit of Día de los Muertos, and it's gonna be a blast! First up on the party agenda is the River Parade, where 25 decked-out boats are cruising down the San Antonio River, each one a floating piece of art celebrating this awesome cultural shindig.

Hosted at historic La Villita, they've got your weekend sorted with tons of fun stuff for the entire family. Live music setting the vibe, margarita trucks to quench your thirst, and calaveras displays bringing that extra dose of cultural coolness. Feeling crafty? Jump into workshops where you can paint like Picasso or whip up your own altar masterpiece.

But hold up—there's more! Brace yourselves for a trip into the whimsical world of alebrijes, beautiful Mexican art sculptures that'll blow your mind. The exhibit is gonna be like stepping into a magical wonderland!

Of course some of these events require a ticket, but trust me, it's a small price to pay for an amazing experience. So, grab your crew, mark those calendars, and let's kick off November with a weekend-long bash along the iconic River Walk and at the heart of La Villita.
