SAN ANTONIO – If Fiesta Medals are your thing, expect to see many repeats from 2020, as many organizations and nonprofits remain frugal during the COVID-19 pandemic. “It’s a big loss for San Antonio. Hansen said even if Fiesta 2021 were to be delayed until later in the year, Oyster Bake is not something the university’s organization can pull off this year. Even the tradition of medals is on hold, with many nonprofits, like Flambeau Parade, reusing the same medals from last year. The plan is to have the traditional weigh-in for Fiesta medals, with the hope that it encourages the city to support nonprofits.

SAN ANTONIO – The Fiesta Oyster Bake at St. Mary’s University has been canceled for a second year due to the coronavirus pandemic. “I am sad to announce that we are canceling Fiesta Oyster Bake 2021 due to the substantial numbers of COVID-19 cases in our region,” association president Joe L. Vela Jr. said in a news release. The Oyster Bake is one of Fiesta’s biggest events, drawing in about 60,000-70,000 fans to the university’s grounds. San Antonio officials had hoped to postpone Fiesta events to Nov. 5-15, 2020, but those plans were scrapped as virus cases continued to increase. The COVID-19 case count reached 155,588 total on Thursday, an increase of 2,507 new cases from the day prior.
