Live-music venues worth the trip in San Antonio, Texas

A lavishly restored 1926 downtown movie palace, now a marquee San Antonio room for major touring acts.

San Antonio’s riverside performing-arts center, its H-E-B Performance Hall a substantial stop for touring artists alongside its resident opera, ballet, and orchestra companies.

A restaurant-and-music-room on the near-east side, a steady San Antonio stop for touring and local bills.
