SAN ANTONIO – The COVID-19 pandemic is crashing San Antonio’s biggest party for the second year in a row.
Fiesta San Antonio officials confirmed Monday that the event that was scheduled for April 15-25 would be postponed until June 17-27, 2021.
The Fiesta Commission said the decision was made based on recommendations from Metro Health and City of San Antonio officials.
Fiesta Commission officials said the June dates were chosen “so that Fiesta can continue its mission of supporting many local non-profit organizations while maintaining its No. 1 priority, the health and safety of all Fiesta guests.”
