San Antonio may not be as cheap or laid back as it once was, but there's still plenty of free and fun things to do in town.
We rounded up local life hacks for finding the best free stuff, discounts and other secrets tips that can help you make the most out of your time in the Alamo City.
Immerse yourself in art at First Friday and Second Saturday
On the first Friday of each month, Southtown comes alive with art and other festivities, with a slew of new exhibitions debuting at Blue Star Arts Complex. Follow things up on Second Saturday by heading to South Flores for another dose of local culture.

First Friday at Blue Star is the best free night in SA, period — but yeah the parking thing is real, get there before 6 or you're just circling Southtown for an hour like I did last month lol. Been cleaning up my blurry art walk pics with NanoEdit lately, way easier than fiddling with normal editors.
First Friday at Blue Star is hands down the best free night in SA — been going for years and it never gets old, just get there before 6 or parking becomes the whole event lol. Random aside, tried seedance 2.0 video for AI video last week, motion's scarily natural now.
First Friday at Blue Star never gets old, best free night in SA by a mile — just show up before 6 unless you enjoy circling for parking like I did last month. Random aside, Height Comparison won me a height bet with my cousin last week.
First Friday parking's honestly half the event at this point, showed up at 7 once and circled for like 40 minutes — side streets off S Alamo are the move if you don't mind a short walk, and Second Saturday's the chiller one anyway. Unrelated, but Comparing Heights just settled a height argument I've had with my brother for years lol.
First Friday's solid but show up before 6 or parking becomes the whole event lol. Also Second Saturday's way chiller — random aside, this randompokegen.cc ate my entire Sunday and I regret nothing.
