San Antonio gets a last-minute reggae outing Saturday when the 11th annual San Antonio Reggae Festival returns to Rosedale Park Pavilion, with a family-friendly setup and free admission for children 12 and under. The festival is scheduled for July 25, and ticket listings point fans toward presale passes through TicketStripe.

Plan for the afternoon into late night. TicketStripe lists the event starting at 3:00 p.m., while one Instagram listing places it from 2:00 p.m. to 11:00 p.m. and prices presale tickets at $25. The festival is set at Rosedale Park Pavilion in San Antonio, Texas, with AllEvents also placing it at 340 Dartmouth, San Antonio, Texas.

The draw is not just one stage or one sound. TicketStripe says the lineup will feature legendary Jamaican reggae artists, live reggae bands, Caribbean soca and dancehall dancers, reggae, dancehall and soca DJs, reggae singers, island vibes, and a Rasta MC and host. That mix points to a broad Caribbean music bill rather than a single-genre concert, with enough movement between live-band sets and DJ programming to keep the afternoon and evening changing pace.

For families, the free entry for children 12 and under changes the math quickly. The same discount appeared on a 2023 festival page, which also advertised more than 10 live reggae bands and performers, showing that the event has kept a kid-friendly format as part of its longer-running model. The result is a ticketed summer gathering that is still built to work for parents, younger listeners, and fans who want a day-long hang instead of a nightclub bill.

The park setting matters too. Rosedale Park Pavilion signals a community event rather than an indoor club date, which usually means an easier arrival, more open space, and a crowd that can move between live music and the DJ side of the night. For reggae and Caribbean-music fans in San Antonio, that makes the festival one of the clearest weekend options on the calendar: a single stop for live reggae, soca, dancehall, and a free pass for the youngest kids.
