Fiesta San Antonio started in 1891 as a one-parade event to honor the memory of the heroes of the Alamo and the Battle of San Jacinto. That historic commemoration still takes place, but for more than a century, Fiesta has grown into a celebration of San Antonio’s rich and diverse cultures and today is one of this nation’s premier festivals with an economic impact of more than $340 million. Funds raised by official Fiesta events provide services to San Antonio citizens throughout the year.
The number of Fiesta events vary from year to year depending on how many Participating Member Organizations there are, but typically there are always 100+ events.
