Fiesta Event Calendar

Fiesta San Antonio has returned two-years of pandemic-related cancellations and postponements. The Fiesta Commission says both the volunteers and the crowds were excited for everything to be back to normal. Fiesta has an estimated $340 million economic impact on San Antonio, and 100 nonprofits make most of their money for the year during Fiesta. The city-wide party and its many events take place from March 31st to April 10th.

Here is a rundown of some of the highlights from Fiesta:
