The 2025 “A Taste of New Orleans”
April 25 – 27 | Sunken Garden Theater | Fiesta San Antonio Official Event
San Antonio is about to get a little spicier – and a whole lot tastier. The 39th Annual A Taste of New Orleans, brought to you by The San Antonio Zulu Association, returns April 25–27, and it’s bringing all the flavor, fun, and flair of the Big Easy right to the Sunken Garden Theater.

As one of Fiesta San Antonio’s most beloved events, “The Taste” is a family favorite – and for good reason. With live New Orleans-style music filling the air and the scent of Cajun and Creole classics wafting from every corner, this three-day event promises good times for all ages.
Whether you’re craving jambalaya, gumbo, shrimp creole, boudin, or the always-popular fresh crawfish boil, this menu has something for every foodie. Beignets? Of course. Alligator? You bet. Wash it all down with a variety of available beverages (alcohol available for guests 21+), then head over to the kids’ zone for rides, clowns, face painting, and more.
Event Hours:
• Friday, April 25 – 5:30 PM to 11:00 PM
• Saturday, April 26 – 12:00 PM to 11:00 PM
• Sunday, April 27 – 12:00 PM to 10:00 PM
Entry to “The Taste” is free with Fiesta admission, but food and drink are sold separately. Grab your tickets and bring the whole crew – it’s time to eat, dance, and celebrate like you’re on Bourbon Street.
