Gabriel 'Fluffy' Iglesias to Headline Christmas Night Comedy Show and Food Drive in San Antonio
On Thursday, December 25, the spirit of giving and laughter will take center stage at the Tobin Center for the Performing Arts, where comedian Gabriel “Fluffy” Iglesias returns for a one-night-only Christmas comedy event. More than just a night of laughs, Fluffy’s Christmas Comedy Show and Food Drive is a heartfelt community celebration designed to support families across San Antonio through the efforts of the San Antonio Food Bank.
Admission to this special Christmas night show won’t cost a dime—but it will require compassion. To attend, each guest must donate 10 canned food items per person at the San Antonio Food Bank, located at 5200 Historic, Old Hwy 90 W, San Antonio, TX 78227. Donations will be accepted on December 25 between 12:00 PM and 3:00 PM. In exchange, donors will receive a wristband that grants access to the show later that evening. Wristbands are issued one per person and must be worn to enter the event. They cannot be picked up on behalf of others or collected at the Tobin Center, so everyone planning to attend must be present when donating.
Doors to the H-E-B Performance Hall lobby will open at 6:30 PM, with the show beginning at 7:30 PM. Seating is general admission and available on a first-come, first-served basis. Guests may begin lining up at The Tobin Center after receiving their wristbands. For early arrivals, TASTE Burgers and Beer will be open starting at 5:30 PM for food and refreshments.
