Bud Light Mardi Gras River Parade
San Antonio, Texas

When: Saturday afternoon before Fat Tuesday [check for this year's dates]

Where: San Antonio River Walk

Known for: pre-Lenten event Mardi Gras celebration with music, a parade, and more

The fun begins before Lent with a fleet of barges floating down the river in the Bud Light Mardi Gras Parade. Costumed krewes cruise down the river watched by throngs of onlookers along the river banks. Performers keep the action moving with live music; in previous years, performers have included the San Antonio Street Dance and Drum Company, the San Antonio Iguanas Cheerleaders and Iggy, and more.

After the parade, the festivities continue with the Bud Light Arts and Crafts Show, scheduled for Friday through Sunday. In previous years, free concerts have also been scheduled at the Rivercenter Mall lagoon, featuring local and regional bands performing Mariachi, conjunto, and contemporary tunes.

Admission: free
