Fiesta has the green light to proceed this year, though smaller and later than usual. San Antonio City Council on Thursday approved several street closures and similar matters so the city s biggest party can take place this month. Fiesta was canceled last year because of the pandemic, so city leaders are seeing this year s event as a major comeback. Fiesta has been pushed back from its usual April dates, and there are fewer than half as many events planned, with some major parades called off. The date is June 17th to the 27th.
