San Antonio--The Saga (free movie/light show all weekend)

I don't think this has been mentioned yet. "The Saga" is a cool short film projected on the San Fernando Cathedral each night, at 9, 9:30, and 10PM. Free admission. Just stroll up and watch. There are a few chairs, but most people stand or sit on the ground. It's really beautiful and one of the more unique things to see downtown. There is usually a little snack stand set up if you want a bite.

Best of all, it's dead simple to find. When you exit the convention center, take a left down Market Street and go about .7 miles. That's it. You can't miss it. Should be a nice stroll this time of year. Just note that our daily high temps of 70's and 80's can dip as low as the 40's in the evening, so dress accordingly.

(NOTE: The movie plays on Tues/Fri/Sat/Sun, so don't bother going Wed/Thurs!)

Edit: Oh, and I apologize in advance for the number of tourists who insist on taking flash photos....of a light show. SMH

    Just a reminder to any out-of-town visitors that "The Saga" should still be playing during PAX. It's a nice walk and spectacular (if brief) show. The days/hours listed on their site are for 2017, but they haven't changed since the show began several years ago.
