💐 Things to do in San Antonio this weekend: Dia de los Muertos, Wurstfest, Diwali SA

Welcome to November! Now that spooky season is over, we can start thinking of the great feast coming up this month — Thanksgiving.

This weekend, we continue the celebration of honoring the lives of our loved ones who have passed. There’s also a chance to check out the last few pumpkin patches open for the fall season, too!

Of course, there’s the option to watch some artists visiting the Alamo City, such as the Norteño group Pesado or the K-Pop group Seventeen.

If you’re out and about this weekend, post your pictures and videos on KSAT Connect! We love to see your adventures!
