Fiesta San Antonio

The City’s Biggest and Boldest Celebration

Held every April, Fiesta San Antonio is a multi-day, citywide celebration that turns San Antonio into a kaleidoscope of color, culture, and fun. What began in 1891 as a way to honor the heroes of the Alamo and Battle of San Jacinto has grown into one of the largest festivals in the country — complete with parades, food, music, art, and community events across the city.
