This picture truly captures the heart of the City of San Benito β€” our people.

Behind every event, every improvement, and every success in our community are the hardworking employees who show up every day with dedication, pride, and love for this city.

That spirit is exactly why our amazing Mayor Ricardo Guerra, City Manager Fred Sandoval, and our incredible City Commissioners proudly embraced the identity of β€œThe Soul of South Texas.”

Because San Benito isn’t just a place β€” it’s a community built on hard work, integrity, and pure heart.

And Hog Waddle Festival 2026 proved it once again:

πŸ”₯ Hog Waddle Festival 2026 Highlights
β€’ 8,500 – 10,850 people attended throughout the day
β€’ Kids performances at 1:00 PM
β€’ Battle of the Alamo reenactment at 3:00 PM
β€’ 42 food & artisan vendors
β€’ Sanctioned BBQ Cookoff with 38 competition teams

From our city staff to our residents, the San Benito spirit shines through in everything we do.

This is why we are β€” and always will be β€”
❀️ The Soul of South Texas.
