Stable Hall will showcase an eclectic crew of acts in its opening months.
As earlier promised, a former draft house in San Antonio's busy Pearl neighborhood will bring in regional and national tours, while making room for sets by some of San Antonio’s favorite local musicians. Tickets for the venue go on sale October 27 at 10 am.
Talent buyer Kristyn Ciani, formerly of leading Austin event management company C3 Presents, is in charge of booking at Stable Hall. She's joined in the talent office by advisor Jay Sweet, who produces the influential Newport Folk Festival, as well as Dallas-based hospitality and entertainment developer W. Brandt Wood. Managing partner Erick Schlather is a San Antonio native.
Among the headliners are Black Pumas; The Capital City duo of Eric Burton and Adrian Quesada burst on the scene with a self-titled album in 2019, becoming a national phenom and performing at President Joe Biden’s Celebrating America inauguration special. The band will blister through a two-night engagement on February 16 and 17, 2024.
Two of the most recognizable names in indie rock will also make their way to the hall. Grammy Award-winning chart-toppers Portugal. The Man will swing by on February 9, 2024, while dream poppers Saint Motel will bring its conceptual "The Awards Show" tour to Pearl on April 26, 2024.
