A message from our San Juan Capistrano
Fiesta Association President

Fiesta Association President: Jim Taylor

Hello. I’m San Juan Capistrano Fiesta Association President Jim Taylor.  Being the leader of our historic association for the past six years has certainly had its challenges. We survived Covid and an Equine Virus over the past few years.  We are strengthened by the support of our totally awesome city council and numerous local corporate sponsors who did not request a refund when the parade was cancelled.  Our organization is so grateful to our community for supporting us. I am convinced this is because, through challenging times, the Swallows Day Parade has always brought us together in one large celebration of the incredible history of our beautiful city. We simply ask that you continue your support as we prepare for the
65th annual Swallows Day Parade and events in 2025.
Our Theme this year is – SADDLE UP SAN JUAN !

A Big Thank You to our
San Juan Capistrano
Fiesta Association 2024 Sponsors

Thank you Kevin Middletown, 1st VP Regional Manager of Farmers and Merchants Bank their generous 20,000 donation to the
SJC Fiesta Association. They are the
2024 Fiesta de Las Golondrinas sponsor!

The SJC Fiesta Association receives our “Blessing” from our very supportive SJC City Council
for the 2024 Swallows Day Parade and Events.

On Tuesday, March 19th, St Josephs Day, the SJC City Council officially recognized the Fiesta Association and the Fiesta De Las Golondrinas for the 2024 season. For the first time, members of the Round About Players, led by Gary McCarver, made sure that Mayor Farias acted in an honorable fashion as he officially approved of the Swallows Day Parade season with all of the events. Mayor Farias was also given an official 2024 Fiesta Association belt buckle for making the right decision:) Thank you SJC City Council for your support! Photos courtesy of Rick Valasek.
