First Look: San Antonio’s new Stable Hall venue marries history, innovation

In 2020, when the Pearl Stable stopped hosting special events, locals were left wondering what was next for the historic structure. Thursday evening, the newly renovated venue, now dubbed Stable Hall, invited special guests for a look at just what's been brewing for the nearly 150-year-old space that once house the Pearl brewery's draft horses. Now revamped as a 1,000-seat music hall, the building features six full-service bars, a fixed seat mezzanine, hay loft-style balconies and a large “jewel-box” stage, replete with a retractable velvet curtain.
