While the NCAA Men’s Final Four plans include a free music festival and tailgates, stormy conditions are anticipated on Friday night.

Attendees are advised to stay updated on weather changes and plan travel accordingly to ensure a smooth experience during the celebrations.

Severe Weather Expected to Impact Final Four Events in San Antonio This Weekend

This weekend, San Antonio is gearing up for an exciting time as the Final Four festivities roll into the city starting on April 4, 2025. With a range of activities scheduled, fans are ready to celebrate college basketball while enjoying some fun in the heart of downtown. However, there’s a bit of a cloud hanging over the festivities—literally! Severe weather is forecasted, and it could throw a wrench into the planned events.

What’s Happening During Final Four Weekend?

For college basketball fans, the NCAA Men’s Final Four isn’t just about the games; it’s an entire weekend packed with excitement! Notable events include the free March Madness Music Festival and the Tip-Off Tailgate. These activities are perfect for grabbing a bite, enjoying live music, and soaking in the competitive spirit leading up to the big games.

Highlighting Friday’s musical lineup are artists like Doechii and the one and only Pitbull, who are set to perform as part of the festivities. But there’s a catch: stormy weather is expected to roll into the area on Friday night, possibly causing some disruption. While the KSAT Weather Authority has indicated that the chance of rain on Friday ranges between 20-40%, we’ll all be crossing our fingers that the storms hold off!

Good News for Saturday and Sunday Events

Fortunately, the forecast looks more promising for Saturday and Sunday nights, which means concertgoers can breathe a sigh of relief. While cool temperatures are predicted to dip into the 50s and 60s, attendees should just bundle up a bit and prepare for a fantastic time without the worry of rain dampening the festivities!

Family Fun in San Antonio

In addition to the concerts and basketball games, family-friendly events are also on the agenda. An Easter egg hunt at Woodlawn Lake will be a delightful way for kids and parents to spend Saturday, providing a festive touch to the weekend. Plus, the Spring Fever Fest at Natural Bridge Caverns promises a day of outdoor fun and exploration.

Weather Forecast for the Weekend

As for the weather throughout the weekend, it’s set to be a mix of foggy mornings followed by periods of partly sunny skies and potential thunderstorms in the afternoon. A cool front is predicted to make its way into San Antonio on Friday, leading to the possibility of storms from late Friday afternoon into Saturday.

Attendees heading out to the various events should keep the weather in mind, especially since indoor events like the games and Fan Fest are likely to remain unaffected by the rain. However, travel to these venues could be tricky, so it’s a good idea to plan ahead. With gusty winds expected on Friday, make sure to identify shelter locations in advance just in case the storms arrive earlier than anticipated.

In Conclusion

In summary, while San Antonio prepares for an action-packed weekend with the Final Four festivities, the weather forecast does suggest that some caution is necessary. Remember to dress warmly and stay informed about the changing weather conditions. Let’s hope the storms are brief and everyone can enjoy what looks to be an incredible weekend of basketball and entertainment!
