Beaux Arts Ball

AIA San Antonio’s Beaux Arts Ball is one of our chapter’s most talked about events.

This year the party celebrates UT San Antonio’s acquisition of the iconic One Riverwalk Place on North St. Mary’s Street. Now the home of their School of Architecture, downtown is abuzz with the energy of 1,000 architecture students. The 2026 Beaux Arts Ball heralds renewed commitment to the public realm and what that strategic investment portends for the future of our city.

It’s a One Riverwalk Renaissance!

 Celebrate this commitment to change and transformation in our community the night of Saturday, March 21, 2026. From the 16^th floor of this downtown skyscraper all of San Antonio’s skyline is visible – there is a special magic every direction. To the west is the site of the future downtown baseball stadium. Looking south, St. Mary’s Street glitters with a dynamic mix of old and new architecture. The party’s luxurious interior spaces beckon with intimate seating perfect for lively conversation. Delicious sips, bites and sounds tempt you to stay late and enjoy the company of friends. You might even cut a rug to a curated playlist created just for the Ball.

As always, we have a range of sponsorship opportunities. Each offers a unique bundle of benefits, including reservations for this fun, festive affair. Whatever level you select, we know you’ll enjoy the merriment that this beloved event brings.
