SAN ANTONIO — Fiesta is over in San Antonio, which means it is time for the area's next big festival.
The Poteet Strawberry Festival is right around the corner and takes place the weekend of April 22-24.
The festival is located in the town of Poteet, which is recognized as the "Strawberry Capital of Texas." The town's founders, Henry and Ida Mumme, started the town's tradition of strawberry growing with just a few rows in their kitchen garden.
In 1921, Poteet citizens invited guests from San Antonio to sample the strawberry delicacies. The Poteet Rotary Club carried on the tradition when it organized the First Annual Poteet Strawberry Festival in 1948.
It's now grown in to a calendar favorite with multiple stages of live music, a carnival and of course, all the strawberry delights you could hope for.
Admission tickets into the festival grounds provides access to all concerts and and stage performances at no additional charge. Friday night is KENS 5 night and online ticket entry for Friday only is $5. Click here to get tickets.
There is also free parking on the festival grounds. Festival organizers warn that parking outside the grounds is operated privately and may incur a charge.
