Before an enthusiastic, sold-out audience at the historic Lobero Theatre, Natalia Treviño was named the 2025 Spirit of Fiesta and Victoria Plascencia was selected as the 2025 Junior Spirit.

The announcement of the two spirits was made by 2025 Fiesta El Presidente Fritz Olenberger.

In addition to selecting this year’s spirits, both outgoing 2024 Spirit of Fiesta Georgey Taupin and 2024 Junior Spirit Aleenah Soriano performed their farewell dances as part of the 2025 auditions.

Taupin and Sorianoah then presented the official sashes and flowers to their successors.

Annually, the Spirit of Fiesta and the Junior Spirit serve as ambassadors throughout the Fiesta year.

Fiesta 2025 runs July 30-Aug. 3. Events and celebrations can be found at sbfiesta.org.
