Texas Citrus Fiesta
Held last week of January. With over 65 years of tradition, the Fiesta ushers in each new year with pomp, elegance,
fun and frivolity to celebrate the importance of the citrus industry in the Valley economy.
The highlight is the coronation of Queen Citriana and King Citrus with beautiful Valley girls, representing various
organizations and cities, vying for the coveted title of Queen.
The product style show, at which lovely models wear costumes made entirely from dried Valley fruits and vegetables,
is a tribute to the creative talents of those who design and make the elaborate apparel.
The Parade of Oranges, with numerous floats, bands, city and Fiesta dignitaries, attracts thousands of spectators.
The three full days of festivities also include a carnival, Texas BBQ, live music, various ethnic foods, arts and crafts
displays, and an educational fun fair.
