Boerne Market Days
Boerne Market Days is located in the heart of the historical district on Main Plaza. This event comes to town on the second weekend of every month, and twice in the month of December to make your holiday shopping experience one you won’t forget! Open Saturday 10am-5pm and Sunday 10am-4pm, it has become synonymous with great shopping in an outdoor setting with artists, craftsmen and vendors sharing their creative talents and wares to the background music of some of Texas’ best home grown musicians.
Spend a day browsing the market and visiting the many downtown boutiques, galleries and restaurants for a unique hill country experience. There are a variety of bargains to be found such as jewelry, plants, art, handcrafts, collectibles, antiques, and more.

National Thrift Shop Day
National Thrift Shop Day encourages people to explore thrift stores, discover unique secondhand items, and contribute to charitable missions while reducing environmental impact. The day highlights the benefits of thrifting, including affordable shopping, vintage and one-of-a-kind finds, and the promotion of a circular economy that keeps products in use longer!
August 26
National Dog Appreciation Day
National Dog Day is an annual holiday dedicated to celebrating all dogs, whether purebred or mixed, and raising awareness about the adoption of dogs in need of homes. The day was founded in 2004 by Colleen Paige, a dog trainer, animal rescue advocate, and lifestyle expert, who chose August 26 because it was the day her family adopted their first dog when she was 10 years old.
