NEW FESTIVAL - 2025
October 4, 2025
Calling all car lovers and mermaid fans! This year, Legacy CTX is proud to introduce FIN FEST, a brand-new family-friendly festival coming to Central Texas—brought to life with the help of Belton New Tech High School and the Heart of Texas Corvette Club.
As we take a break this year from hosting Sirena Fest®, we’re excited to bring the community something fresh and fun that still celebrates the magic, imagination, and mission behind our work. Fin Fest blends the beauty of classic cars, high-end sports cars, and hot rods with the wonder of mermaids—for a one-of-a-kind experience the whole family will enjoy.
Start the day with our poker-run inspired Seahorse Sprint, a cruise designed for car enthusiasts who enjoy a little friendly competition. Then roll into Pace Park for the Fin Fest Car Show, where sleek rides and custom builds will be on full display.
But Fin Fest isn’t just about cars—it’s a celebration for everyone. Enjoy:
Whether you’re here for the engines or the enchantment, Fin Fest is where horsepower meets imagination. We hope to see you there!

The Legend of Sirena
Who is Sirena?
The legend of Sirena can be found in many countries and in many cultures, to include the Chamorro culture of Guam, the Filipino culture, and even many Native American tribes have varying versions of the tale of Sirena. The Tonkawa, who once lived in the Central Texas Area, are one of these tribes. According to the Tonkawa Legend, Sirena was tricked into becoming a mermaid by a magical catfish in return for helping her win the heart of a warrior. Along with the many legends of Sirena throughout the world, there are also many statues to honor these legends. If you are lucky enough to be in the Central Texas area, you can view one of these statues. A beautiful bronze sculpture of Sirena mermaid sits at Sirena Park in Salado, TX. Sirena was the creation of local artist, Troy Kelley, in 1986. The inspiration for his creation of Sirena came from his grandmother who told him of the Tonkawa Native American legend as a young child. |
