Main Plaza Conservancy’s custom fabricated and full-color canopy structures are up! Designed by Rios Clementi Hale Studios, the structures are intended to provide a light weight shading device derived from the colors and language of our San Antonio culture.
2009 was a fantastic year at Main Plaza: we presented an array of weekly and special events that showcased our commitment to locally activated outdoor programming. In 2010, we build on these fresh traditions and explore new directions in music, public art, film, and dance. Main Plaza has become a vital venue for progressive public cultural expression; we invite San Antonio to rediscover the downtown experience at Main Plaza.
From music and food to historical celebrations, Main Plaza is your cultural destination.
Bring the family and celebrate what makes San Antonio, San Antonio...
Main Plaza.
Main Plaza is operated by Main Plaza Conservancy (MPC), a non-profit 501c3 organization dedicated to providing San Antonio and its visitors with the cultural and historical heart of the city.
Main Plaza sits at the heart of downtown San Antonio, TX adjacent to the historic San Fernando Cathedral and Riverwalk between Market and Commerce Streets.
All events are free and open to the public.
Chairs, pets [on leashes], and dancing shoes are welcome; coolers are not. Food and beverages (beer, wine, and non-alcoholic) are available for purchase onsite.
