Today
🎯 Songbird Hunting Event with Randall King @ Lonestar Premier Outdoors | Friday (9/5) at 6:30pm – Grab your boots, locals, Randall King’s scouting for the next great songbird. Expect a night of toe-tapping country tunes, gentle ribbing, and the kind of applause only someone’s tipsy uncle can perfect. Don’t worry, real locals know how to spot an off-key solo.
🎸 First Sting: Scorpions Tribute @ Faust Brewing Company | Friday (9/5) at 7:00pm – Think you’ve outgrown your headbanging phase? First Sting, the Scorpions tribute outfit, is invading the biergarten with wailing guitars and frosty pints. It’s craft beer, hearty bites, and a solid reason to belt “Rock You Like a Hurricane.”
This weekend
🌱 Garden Volunteer Day @ Fischer Park | Saturday (9/6) at 9:00am – Forget brunch lines and artisanal lattes, roll up your sleeves at Fischer Park Garden to tame rogue weeds and plant butterfly magnets. It’s outdoor therapy, birdsong background music, and karma points for every bloom you rescue.
🎂 Cake Painting Class @ Beyond Coffee | Saturday (9/6) at 11:00am – Shake off the weekday blahs with a cake painting class where your biggest worry is frosting in your hair, not your inbox. You’ll score a slice of homemade cake, a rainbow of vanilla-bean icing, and your coffee drink of choice. RSVP early.
🕺 Bucksnort Boogie Boys @ Krause’s Biergarten & Cafe | Saturday (9/6) at 11:30am – If your playlist feels stale, check out this ragtag string band of a hillbilly, a city refugee, a lovebird wrangler, and a metalhead fiddler. They mix originals, surprise covers, and enough dry wit to make you wish every Saturday night was front-porch jam session.
🐕 Doggie Dip Day @ Landa Park Aquatic Complex | Sunday (9/7) at 12:00pm – Thought your dog had enough of backyard sprinklers? Head over to the newly revamped Landa Park pool for Doggie Dip Day, where pups cannonball into spring-fed bliss, chase squeaky toys in the shallow end, and remind us how to live a little, splash by splash.
🎤 Jesse Stratton Band @ Gruene Hall | Sunday (9/7) at 3:00pm – Whether you’re craving honest Texas Hill Country roots or just tired of the same old playlists, Jesse Stratton rolls into town with his 14-year-old prodigy son on percussion and sax, belting soulful Americana. Expect raw emotion, multi-instrument chops, and zero pretension.
🎷 Matt Kirk & the Gueyfarers @ Gruene Hall | Sunday (9/7) at 6:30pm – Nothing beats Gruene Hall’s floorboards and a set from Matt Kirk and The Gueyfarers. They’ll have you clapping along to Tex-Mex swing so authentic it makes your cousin’s 20-year-old wine fridge a party trick. Dust off your dancing boots, even if they’re a little dusty.
Next week
🧘 Calming Collage @ New Braunfels Public Library | Monday (9/8) at 5:30pm – Need to let off steam after Monday’s madness? Roll into Calming Collage for a laid-back night of snipping bits from old magazines, newspapers, and whatever else you can find. It’s like art therapy without the couch time.
🏢 NB Chamber’s 37th Annual Business Expo @ New Braunfels Civic/Convention Center | Tuesday (9/9) at 10:00am – Skip the coffee shop circuit and dive into the chamber’s 37th annual business expo, where everyone from podcasters to plumbers hawks their wares and hands out swag. Whether you’re scouting new partners or just collecting free pens, polish your pitch and roam the aisles.
🎤 John Cavender’s Songwriter Night @ Watering Hole Saloon | Tuesday (9/9) at 8:00pm – Kick off your Tuesday rut at the Watering Hole Saloon on the 2nd and 4th for John Cavender’s Songwriter Night, a cozy song swap passing the mic to local pickers. Show up early for line-dance lessons, stay for bargain tequila, Buds, and laughs.
