🏁 Baguettes, Burnouts & Blackjack: 3 Things You Must Do This Weekend in Boerne, TX
Ah, Boerne. That charming slice of Hill Country heaven where the pace is slow, the people wave with more than one finger, and the weekends are always worth writing home about (assuming your mom is still reading your blog).
If you're wondering what to do this weekend (April 25–27), grab your calendar, cancel those “laundry and lawn” plans, and check out these three can’t-miss happenings — because Netflix will still be there Monday.
🚗 1. Fast Cars, Loud Pipes & the Occasional Midlife Crisis: The Texas Corvette Association Open Car Show
If you’ve never experienced 450 Corvettes invading Downtown Boerne, well... buckle up, buttercup.
This isn't your average car meet in a dusty parking lot. This is a chrome-glinting, V8-rumbling, tire-shining spectacular stretched out along the Hill Country Mile. Whether you're a motorhead or just like shiny things and people watching, this is your scene.
Friday: Meet & Greet at Tusculum Brewing — where the cars sparkle and so do the beers.
Saturday: The car show shuts down Main Street in the best way possible.
Sunday: They hit the road for a scenic “Drive & Dine” that ends at the historic Y.O. Ranch Hotel in Kerrville.
Bonus: It all benefits SJRC Texas, helping kiddos and families in crisis. Go feel good about horsepower.
🥖 2. Oui Oui, Y’all! — La Petite French Market at Comanche Trail
Is it France? Is it Boerne? Who cares — it’s here.
Picture this: You’re sipping a lavender lemonade, carrying a handmade goat milk soap that smells like retirement in Provence, all while a folksy acoustic trio plays a Bob Dylan cover that somehow makes sense. That’s the La Petite French Market, back for its 3rd annual appearance, and it’s trés magnifique.
Expect:
Artisan vendors
Fancy snacks
Locally made things that cost more than Amazon but come with actual charm
And enough berets to make you question your fashion choices
It runs all weekend. Take someone you love. Or someone who needs convincing that Boerne really is cooler than Austin.
🎲 3. High Stakes & Higher Hairdos: Rotary Club of Boerne's Casino Night
It's Saturday night. You’ve had enough small-town peace. It’s time to roll the dice — literally.
The Rotary Club’s Casino Night is your excuse to dress up, act like James Bond (or at least a wealthy rancher version), and gamble fake money like it’s 2006 again. All proceeds go to local causes, so when you lose at blackjack, you can still feel like a winner.
There will be:
Blackjack, roulette, and all the classics
Drinks, dancing, and more sequins than a Nashville bachelorette party
Bragging rights, especially if you hit 21 on the first draw and strut away like you own Main Street
☀️ Weather Report: Don’t Sweat It… Actually, You Will
Friday: Showers early, then humid like a sauna in a Yeti cooler.
Saturday: Cloudy and warm, perfect for car gazing and baguette browsing.
Sunday: Sunny-ish and ideal for post-casino regret brunches.
So whether you're into muscle cars, macaroons, or Monte Carlo-style mayhem, Boerne's got you covered this weekend.
See you out there — just don’t wear heels on Main Street’s cobblestone. You’ve been warned.
