Stars & Stripes on Houston Street, Presented by USAA, Returns in 2026 to Celebrate America’s 250th Birthday
This year, Stars & Stripes on Houston Street raises the bar with an all-new lineup set to take over Downtown San Antonio this July 4th.
The celebration kicks off with the inaugural Stars & Stripes Downtown 5K, racing through the heart of the city and finishing strong at Civic Park at Hemisfair. From there, the momentum continues with a post-race celebration leading into the Stars & Stripes Parade, bringing Houston Street to life with the patriotic energy and pageantry worthy of Military City, USA.
The day continues with the debut of the Stars & Stripes Music & Food Fest, a high-energy showcase of live music, local flavor, and family fun, before building toward the night’s grand finale: the Stars & Stripes Downtown Spectacular, a dazzling fireworks display and the first-ever July 4th fireworks show at Civic Park.
One day. One downtown. An all-out celebration for America’s 250th.
