Mayfest 2025 Welcomes Community to Mayfair

May 27, 2025

Mayfair hosted its annual Mayfest Festival on Saturday, May 10, inviting everyone to explore the growing New Braunfels community. With thousands of attendees, guests mingled with award‑winning home builders, local businesses, and future neighbors.

People relax on colorful lawn chairs at Mayfest 2025 in New Braunfels, enjoying a sandy outdoor event filled with tents, booths, and a lively crowd under a partly cloudy sky.

“Mayfest is the perfect way to experience Mayfair’s sense of community. It’s not just about homes; it’s about creating connections, enjoying good company and getting a feel for the lifestyle we’re building here.” —Kristi Robinson, Vice President of Marketing and Community Relations

Fun for Everyone at Mayfest

Building on the success of the inaugural Mayfair in 2024, there was even more this year to keep Mayfest goers entertained and engaged including live music on a festival stage, putting greens, building blocks, and cornhole boards. Thrill seekers scaled a rock wall, bounced on a bungee jumper, and breezed through the bike pump track.

Businesses large and small were also there to connect with attendees. At Costco’s booth, visitors could sign up for memberships in anticipation of the new Mayfair store opening. Area staples like Texas Ski Ranch and Stars & Stripes Drive-In Theatre shared their summer plans, while The Path on Mill St. provided bikes for testing out the pump track.

Food trucks lined the community to serve burgers and BBQ while a bier and wein garden provided a place to cool down. Local vendors served sweet treats, painted faces, or sold art, jewelry, and other artisanal goods. Those who wanted to cherish the occasion could craft a keepsake at the friendship bracelet-making workshop or capture the moment in a Volkswagen bus-turned-photobooth.

Those inclined to compete could play frisbee golf and inflatable games. The mountain lion mascot joined the festivities to represent Mayfair Elementary, which is set to open its doors this fall to families in Comal ISD.

A Chance to Connect, View New Homes at Mayfair

For prospective homebuyers, Mayfest offers a unique opportunity to not only experience the community’s energy, but also connect with each of Mayfair’s award-winning home builders.

Attendees could hop aboard a trolley and tour eight model homes from Coventry Homes, Highland Homes, Perry Homes, and Toll Brothers. Back at Fairview Park, they could hear about options coming soon from David Weekley Homes, Scott Felder Homes, D.R. Horton Homes and Wes Peoples homes.

Community organizations also had booths to educate attendees about their missions and opportunities to get involved. Nonprofits in attendance included New Braunfels Parks Foundation, Comal Education Foundation, and Headwaters at the Comal—three local charities to which Mayfair is pledged to donate $100 each per new home sold through the life of the project.
