Buda Bingo Summer Invites Visitors To Explore Historic Downtown Buda One Square At A Time

Shop, sip, and stroll Buda’s walkable downtown for a chance to win prizes through August 14

BUDA, TEXAS, July 8, 2026 — The Buda Economic Development Corporation (Buda EDC), in partnership with Discover Buda and the Greater Buda Chamber of Commerce, today announced Buda Bingo Summer, a season-long scavenger hunt through Historic Downtown Buda. The interactive game invites visitors to shop, dine, and explore one of Central Texas’s most walkable downtown districts, collecting stickers from participating businesses to complete a Buda Bingo card and earn chances to win local prizes while supporting the small businesses that make Buda such a special place to visit.

Players pick up a Buda Bingo card at any of the 40 participating businesses and earn a sticker each time they make a purchase between now and August 14, 2026, the deadline to turn in completed cards. Completing a row, column, or diagonal earns an entry into the prize drawing, and a full blackout card earns the maximum number of entries. Cards may be turned in at one of three drop-off locations, open 9 a.m. to 4 p.m., Monday through Friday:

  • Buda Welcome Center, 303 N. Main St.
  • Buda City Hall, 405 E. Loop St.
  • Greater Buda Chamber of Commerce, 307 N. San Marcos St.

Historic Downtown Buda spans just a few walkable blocks, making it easy to spend an entire day exploring without moving the car. The 40 participating businesses cover nearly every corner of downtown, from locally owned boutiques, antique treasures, delicious restaurants, sweet treats, live music venues, and unique gathering spots. A full list of all participating businesses is available at BudaEDC.com/BudaBingo.

“Buda Bingo is the perfect excuse for a summer day trip, whether that’s a family outing, a couples getaway, or a guys/girls’ trip with your best friends,” said Jennifer Storm, Executive Director at the Buda EDC. “Every sticker means you’re supporting a local business, and every stop is a reason to fall in love with Historic Downtown Buda a little more.”

Winners will be randomly drawn from completed entries and notified using the contact information provided on their Buda Bingo card. Buda Bingo Summer starts now and runs through August 10th, 2026. Prize details will be announced closer to the entry deadline.
