The Alamo City is ready to party again. You can see this post-pandemic revival on the River Walk, San Antonio’s beating heart, which is once again bustling with boat tours, twinkling lights, and patios full of locals and tourists sipping on beers and margaritas while music spills out of its restaurants.
Starting this week, hundreds of thousands of people are expected to gather along the banks of the River Walk for the return of the seventy-sixth annual Texas Cavaliers River Parade, part of the city’s annual Fiesta celebration, which, because of the coronavirus, was canceled in 2020 and postponed until June this year.
The Fiesta Porch Parade special is airing on KSAT 12 and will include performances by major musical acts including the Black Eyed Peas, Ava Max and AJR.

SAN ANTONIO Two of Fiesta s most beloved events are coming together to put on a safe, virtual event to encourage the Fiesta spirit. The Battle of Flowers Parade and Fiesta Flambeau Parade will participate in the virtual event this year.
Fiesta 2021, originally set to take place in April, was postponed to June due to fears of spreading COVID-19. However, the street parades usually incorporate mostly student organizations, such as student bands, drill teams and color guards and the June 2021 Fiesta dates will be outside the school term for most school districts.
