Experience San Antonio’s historic downtown district through food, wellness, and local artistry.

SAN ANTONIO, TX — St. Paul Square, the historic downtown district turned world-class entertainment destination, is thrilled to unveil its Spring 2026 schedule for Sundays at the Square. (St. Paul Square, 2026)

Produced in partnership with Juntos San Antonio, this admission-free, all-ages weekly event series and farmer’s market is entering its second year with a fresh focus on neighborhood collaboration and intentional, theme-driven programming.

What’s New This Season?
