Fiesta Arts Fair is a party with a purpose and takes place on Saturday, April 18, 2026, 10AM to 6PM & Sunday, April 19, 2026, 11AM to 5PM! The annual art-focused fundraising celebration provides operating support for UT San Antonio Arts, which is dedicated to community arts education for children and adults, public-facing performances and exhibitions, and arts-based research and partnerships to enhance the accessibility of the arts for the public, and the facilities to support these activities. UT San Antonio Arts includes the Young Artists Program, Teen Studio Intensive, Saturday Morning Discovery, and the adult community classes which all take place at the UT San Antonio Southwest historic campus.

About Fiesta Arts Fair

Fiesta Arts Fair started as a small fair in 1973, it has grown into a highlight of the annual Fiesta San Antonio ® celebration, with an annual attendance of approximately 12,000 people. This family-friendly, two-day event is held on the UT San Antonio Southwest historic campus.

Fiesta Arts Fair features contemporary art from more than 100 artists from across the U.S., Fiesta favorite foods, drinks, live music by local and regional performers, and a Young Artists Garden providing opportunities for budding artists to learn, explore, and express their creativity!

Fiesta Arts Fair has a well-earned reputation for keeping fairgoers entertained with great, live music. Local and regional favorites perform throughout the Fiesta Arts Fair weekend, on two (2) stages. Just like the art and the food, the music at Fiesta Arts Fair can cover a wide range of tastes. From rock, folk and Texas roots, to blues, zydeco and indie, the styles may vary, but the quality of the music is always high.
