The last two weeks of April host San Antonio's famous Fiesta. Fiesta celebrates San Antonio's culture and history by throwing lavish parades with traditional Tex-Mex goodies and Mexican music. NIOSA, short for Night in Old San Antonio, is a fun nighttime block party with food stations, dancing, and colorful clothing. Be sure to buy a few cascarones -- dyed eggs containing rainbow confetti that you crack over your friends' heads, showering them in confetti.
