Bold Fiesta Flavors and Festive Sips

Viva La Fiesta offers a park-wide menu inspired by Latin traditions and Six Flags favorites including:

• Mexican street tacos featuring carnitas, asada or al pastor
• Mini trompo skewers and savory brochetas
• Southwest favorites such as potato tacos, Armadillo Eggs, Mexican fruit cups and pan dulce

A Day Dedicated to A Kid Again

In honor of the citywide Fiesta San Antonio celebration, Sunday, April 19, is dedicated to highlighting A Kid Again, a nonprofit organization that provides year-round adventures and support to children with life-threatening conditions and their families. The day will feature additional moments of entertainment and fun designed to help guests of all abilities feel like a kid again.

Limited-Edition Fiesta Medal Inspired by Legend

Six Flags Fiesta Texas has released a 2026 Fiesta Medal inspired by the legend of the Chupacabra, blending Fiesta tradition with the park’s evolving mythology. The design reflects the recent Chupacabra retheming and a series of mysterious sightings hinted at on social media, including glowing eyes and unexplained activity often appearing during full moons.

These subtle clues point toward a new attraction coming in 2027, with more details yet to be revealed. The Fiesta Medal serves as both a collectible keepsake and a symbol of a legend that is only beginning to awaken. The medal is available at all major merchandise locations while supplies last.

Thrills and Family Fun You Can Only Find at a Theme Park

Viva La Fiesta stands apart because the celebration happens inside a world-class theme park. At Six Flags Fiesta Texas, guests can enjoy live music and festive flavors, then jump straight into unforgettable thrills.

From flying through the air at speeds reaching 75 mph on signature attractions to making memories together on family favorites like the scenic train ride, the event blends San Antonio tradition with nonstop excitement.
