IN PARTNERSHIP WITH
Good morning, New Braunfels! We hope you had a wonderful first weekend of 2026. Not going to lie, weāre still having to remind ourselves to type ā2026ā and not ā2025ā, so forgive us if we still mess it up a time or two!š
Thereās a lot happening this week, and weāve put together a list of some of the canāt miss events coming up over the next few days. Donāt forget that you can also find even more events on our full calendar on our website.
The Courthouse is quickly becoming one of the best places in town to hang out, whether youāre playing or watching. With pickleball and padel courts, great food and drinks, and plenty of space to relax, itās an easy spot to gather with friends.
Itās also a perfect place to catch a game, with the NFL playoffs and college football playoffs underway and plenty of screens to keep you in the action. Whether youāre rallying on the courts or settling in to watch kickoff, The Courthouse brings it all together in one place.
