Bud Light San Antonio’s Fiesta Top 10 List
As Fiesta 2015 approaches the end of its first week, Bud Light San Antonio is sharing its top 10 favorite things about Fiesta!
1. Medals
Fiesta-goers collect hundreds of medals each year and we love seeing all that bling! We try not to be biased, but have heard the coveted Bud Light medal is like currency around town.
2. Music and Dancing
From Rock at Oyster Bake to Zydeco at the Taste of New Orleans to Tejano in Market Square, the San Antonio air is filled with great music right now and we love seeing Fiesta-goers dancing the nights away!
3. Cold Beer… and Fiesta Safe Rides
There’s plenty of cold beer to celebrate with this Fiesta and we are so happy San Antonians are enjoying responsibly. More than 2,000 Fiesta Safe Rides taxi cards will be used during Fiesta. Pick yours up today at the Yellow Cab offices and celebrate responsibly this Fiesta!

Towering above the crowds, Fiesta hats and flower crowns are an over-the-top and ever-present part of San Antonio’s Fiesta celebrations. We toast all the hat lovers out there for truly being #UpforWhatever!
5. Chicken On a Stick
We love our food on sticks and know you do to! A must try experience for the chicken lover at heart or anyone that just likes eating off a stick, is Fiesta’s famous chicken on a stick! Do you take yours with or without a jalapeño?
6. Parades

The Fiesta parades are one of the festival’s biggest attractions each year. From the one-of-a-kind Texas Cavaliers River Parade to the many street parades, San Antonians know how to throw a parade. We are thrilled the Budweiser Clydesdales are back this year for two of Fiesta’s most beloved parades. Don’t miss your chance to catch a peak of these majestic creatures at both the Battle of Flowers Parade and the Fiesta Flambeau Parade.
7. Party with a Purpose
Fiesta is first and foremost a Party with a Purpose and we always enjoy supporting a good cause! Over the 11 days of Fiesta, more than one-hundred events are put on by local charitable and military organizations, raising several hundred-thousand dollars. As a committed partner in the San Antonio community, and the official beer of Fiesta, Bud Light San Antonio toasts all those working tirelessly to make this annual celebration so successful.
8. Fiesta Royalty
We have royalty in our blood lines – after all Budweiser is the ‘King of Beers’! So it goes without saying that Fiesta royalty definitely has a place in our hearts. We even asked this year’s kings to be part of our PSA reminding San Antonians to celebrate responsibly. Our hats (and tiaras) are off to the entire royal court, who make hundreds of visits throughout San Antonio during their reign, spreading the message of education, service and Fiesta.
9. Cascarones and Confetti
This is an eggcellent San Antonio tradition we can really get behind. It wouldn’t be Fiesta without our floors and the city’s streets covered with confetti. What’s your cascarone-style? Smash it or show mercy by cracking it first?
10. “Show Me Your Shoes!”
Down in Texas, ‘these boots are made for walking,’ but during Fiesta it’s all about another type of footwear. The shoes that girls wear during the parades have become almost as important as their bedazzled dresses. Spectators have long been yelling “show me your shoes” and this year’s decadent showing has not disappointed!
