Music History
Ragtime marked a permanent change in the way people wrote, consumed, and perceived music.
So what role did San Antonio play in all this? While not a national hub of influence, The Alamo City’s location made it a distribution center for much of the music trade in Texas. Learn more about our city’s ragtime history through exclusive exhibits in our Ragtime Museum!
Mouth-watering

The Blue Star Arts Complex also features a plethora of amazing food and shopping options. See more about them here.
Beyond the Blue Star, Southtown is famous for its one-of-a-kind eats and is worth exploring between sets at the festival.
