Cannon Fest

Join the Alamo for a 3-day exploration of the cannons and artillery of the Texas Revolution!

Cannon Fest will include three live artillery displays, interactive drills, and living history demonstrations for all ages on the Alamo grounds.

In addition to the Alamo’s seven 1836 battle cannons, visitors will also enjoy a special appearance by the 4-pound bronze cannon, one of 13 cannons unearthed in 1852 in downtown San Antonio.

The celebration will conclude with Come and Take It day on Monday, Oct. 2, with a special announcement by the Alamo’s CEO and other dignitaries.  

 Remember the Alamo and the artillery of the Texas Revolution at Cannon Fest, Saturday, Sept. 30 – Monday, Oct. 2.
