San Antonio, TX — One of Fiesta’s most iconic traditions will take center stage along the River Walk as the Tobin Center for the Performing Arts invites the community to its Texas Cavaliers River Parade Viewing Party on April 20, 2026.

The free, family-friendly event will take place from 6:00 p.m. to 8:30 p.m. on Will’s Plaza, offering guests a prime viewing location for the annual Texas Cavaliers River Parade.
