Time:
Sunday, October 30th, 6:30 pm to 9:00 pm
Location:
Buses depart from Omni

Experience a traditional San Antonio Fiesta with an evening of mariachis, margaritas and food at our historic Sunset Station Depot. Sunset Station honors the architectural legacy of the historic Southern Pacific Railroad depot terminal and provides a unique backdrop for an evening of fun.

Greeted by folklorico dancers and treated to a traditional mariachi musical performance, guests will have an opportunity to mix, mingle, eat and also try their hand at a game of Loteria.

Shuttles will be provided from the hotel to Sunset Station and back. We hope to see you there.
