Viva! Fiesta
The San Antonio Express-News proudly presents a hardcover coffee-table book celebrating San Antonio's big Fiesta.
From the first Fiesta in 1891 to current day, the event conjures up images of cheerful faces, finger-licking foods, revered royalty, festive parades and the rich heritage of San Antonio — all commemorated here in this beautifully-bound tome full of memories of Fiestas past.
But for more than a century, Fiesta has become party central for the city’s diverse communities and cultures, arriving annually in April with the gusto of a parade’s grand marshal and the pomp and circumstance of a proper queen who, by the way, is dying to show us her shoes. For 11 days Fiesta fervently unfurls across the city in magnificent waves of confetti and folkloric color.
