Fun show

Due to popular request, we are excited to announce that we are planning a Fun Show at the Feast in New Braunfels this year! Please reserve the evening of Tuesday, Oct. 22, and begin planning what you – or you and your family – might want to perform. If you can sing or play music, tell stories, recite poetry or share a comedic act, we want you! And even if you don’t, we still want you there to join in the fun! 

We’ll want to have the show schedule put together by the end of September, so don’t delay! And if you would like to assist in any other way (i.e. stage, etc.), please also reach out! We want this to be a fun night for everyone!

Site Description

New Braunfels is a small town of approximately 100,000 people located in the hill country of Texas, just 30 miles northeast of downtown San Antonio. Its German heritage is evident in the city’s buildings, culture and cuisine. According to the U.S. Census Bureau, New Braunfels was the third-fastest-growing city in the United States from 2010-2020.

Services will be held in the New Braunfels Civic/Convention Center, 375 S. Castell Ave., New Braunfels, Texas 78130. 

Nestled at the convergence of two rivers, New Braunfels offers many recreational opportunities that include water, such as floating one of the rivers or swimming in the largest spring-fed pool in Texas!

For those interested in history, there are seven museums to visit and the historic district of Gruene (a district within the city of New Braunfels) to explore. And for dining, there are many restaurants nearby where visitors can sample German dishes, Texas barbecue and contemporary fare.

If you’d like to venture beyond the local area, San Antonio is just 30 miles south on Interstate 35. There you can tour the historic Alamo, wander the River Walk, go up the Tower of the Americas, visit SeaWorld and enjoy Six Flags Fiesta Texas theme park.
