SAN ANTONIO – One of San Antonio’s oldest and largest Fiesta traditions kicked off Friday at St. Mary’s University.
Fiesta Oyster Bake is a music festival where all the funds raised goes directly to the university, and it’s exactly what the name sounds like.
According to its website, the festival goes through more than 100,000 oysters throughout the two-day event.
Oyster Bake is from April 17 to April 18.
The music lineup for April 17 includes Switchfoot and Drake Milligan. The event will be from 5-11 p.m. at 1 Camino Santa Maria.
