The definite guide on fashion at Fiesta is to wear bright, vibrant colors which will commemorate San Antonio’s heritage. Flower crowns and flowing dresses always seem to be the best way to go for women and men embroidered Mexican shirts suit best which you can find at any Spanish heritage boutique, especially in the market square area (El Mercado).

Fiesta De Los Reyes

Fiesta de Los Reyes offers daily live performances on multiple stages with various musical genres, bringing you an unforgettable festival experience. While there is no official lineup for the upcoming Fiesta celebration, Fiesta de Los Reyes is the city’s largest official Fiesta event and the only one that runs the entire 10-day festival. Last year’s performers contributed to The Latin Breed, Tropa Estrella, Jay Perez, David Lee Garza, A.B Quintanilla and the Kumbia Kings. So we are to expect a pretty great lineup this Fiesta.

VIA PARK AND RIDE

Looking for a way to avoid the crazy traffic San Antonio has to bring? VIA has brought back the Park and Ride passes. Rides are $2.50 each way or a $5 round trip. Tickets can be purchased at ticket booths or the VIA goMobile app. Accompanied children under the age of free will ride for free. Monthly passes from VIA are not valid for Park & Ride.
