The 75-year-old festival billed as 'A Night In Old San Antonio' offers foods from cultures around the globe that are part of San Antonio.
In a community internationally recognized as a, the 75-year-old festival billed as “A Night In Old San Antonio” offers cuisine from cultures around the globe on a cultural maze of pedestrian streets and plazas covering just over four acres.
The festival grounds, with more than 165 booths and entertainment stages, are divided into 14 theme areas that carry people through a world of tastes, music and customs: Mission Trail, China Town and Mexican Market, to name a few. Rooted in its 1936 beginnings as an “Indian Harvest Festival” that celebrated Indigenous culture at Mission San José, the event moved to La Villita, re-branded in 1948 and gradually expanded from one to four nights in the 1950s to become today’s NIOSA.
Zaiontz, Avellar and former NIOSA chairs Mary Ann Turner, DeAnna Keesee and Margie Arnold recalled festival foods that have come and gone — calf fries, oyster shooters, steak tartar and frog legs among them.
