SAN ANTONIO – Show me your shoes! The Fiesta Flambeau Parade returns to downtown San Antonio on Saturday.
The famous, illuminated night parade is celebrating its 75th diamond jubilee this year, and more than 750,000 spectators are expected to line the city streets to see the action. Another 1.5 million viewers are also expected to watch the Fiesta Flambeau Parade on TV.
