How to watch ABC programming pre-empted by 2023 Fiesta coverage

KSAT will air Fiesta parades on air and online

Some of your favorite ABC shows may have a new air date/time during Fiesta. (KSAT/ABC)

SAN ANTONIO – KSAT is your official Fiesta station and that means we’re covering all the parades but it might also mean that your favorite ABC programs might be shown at a different time than usual.

Your shows will still air on KSAT, but you may need to adjust your DVR. You’ll be able to have the best of both worlds — celebrating the city’s biggest party with a purpose AND still getting to watch your regular television shows.
