Top 3 Things to Do in Boerne This Weekend: October 24-26, 2025

Hey neighbors, it's that time again to shake off the week and dive into what Boerne has cooking this weekend. With fall in full swing, there's no better way to recharge than getting out there and soaking up some local vibes. Whether you're looking to support a good cause, get into the Halloween spirit, or learn a new skill with a twist, these top three picks will have you feeling connected and energized. Let's jump in.

1. Roll the Dice at the Boerne HS Band Boosters Casino Night (Friday, October 24)

Imagine kicking off your weekend with a bit of Vegas flair right here in Boerne, all while helping out the local high school band. The Boerne HS Band Boosters are throwing their first casino night fundraiser at the Ironwood Events at Von Erich Ranch. From 6:00 PM to 11:00 PM, you can try your luck at roulette, blackjack, craps, and poker—no real money on the line, just chips and good times. It's a great chance to dress up a little, mingle with fellow locals, and maybe even win some prizes, all for a cause that keeps our kids' music programs going strong. If you've been feeling cooped up, this is your ticket to a night of laughter and light-hearted competition that reminds you life's too short not to bet on a little fun. Grab tickets for $60 here, and come ready to cheer on the greyhounds. Who knows, you might walk away with bragging rights over that "lucky" hand.

2. Get Spooky at Boerne Boo (Saturday, October 25)

Saturday calls for some family time or a fun outing with friends at Boerne Boo, the community's go-to Halloween celebration from 4:00 PM to 7:00 PM in downtown Boerne's Main Plaza. Picture the area buzzing with kids in costumes dashing between bounce houses, carnival games, and arts and crafts stations, while food trucks dish out seasonal treats and live music sets the mood. It's the perfect setup to embrace that pre-Halloween excitement, letting everyone burn off energy and create those simple memories that stick around longer than the candy. There's something refreshing about seeing the town come together like this—it's a low-key reminder of why we choose this place, with neighbors sharing laughs over over-the-top outfits. And if you're solo, it's still a solid way to people-watch and soak in the energy. No tickets needed; just show up in your best (or worst) costume and join the festivities. Find more details here. Pro tip: Bring an extra bag for the loot—you'll need it.

3. Mix Up Some Magic at the Halloween Cocktail Workshop (Sunday, October 26)

Wrap up the weekend on a creative note with the Halloween Cocktail Workshop by Assemble Cocktail Workshop on Sunday from 4:00 PM to 5:30 PM at their cozy spot on 322 S Main Street. This hands-on session dives into mixology with a spooky twist, where you'll craft drinks like foggy potions and garnished "eyeball" martinis, learning techniques and flavor pairings along the way. It's a relaxed vibe that's ideal for unwinding after a full weekend, chatting with others, and picking up tricks to impress at your next get-together. In the midst of busy days, carving out time for something playful like this can spark that sense of accomplishment and joy we all crave. Sessions are intimate, so they fill up fast—book your spot here. Bonus: You might leave with a recipe that turns your home bar into the neighborhood haunt.
