Whether you’re looking for live music, dancing or food, Fiesta in San Antonio has it all in abundance.

More than 100 official Fiesta events are hosted by nonprofit groups.

Lupita Valerio has been celebrating Fiesta for more than 40 years. She said she enjoys the celebrations all over town.

“Come celebrate Fiesta with us and have a lot of fun. Forget about problems, forget about trouble, forget about the economy, come and celebrate with us,” she said

The celebrations raise money that go back to the community through scholarships and other programs.

YNN's Russell Wilde shares more about the celebration in this edition of Wilde About Texas.

Fiesta continues through Saturday night, to see schedule of events click here.
