SA Chamber of Commerce declines to host show for second year in a row

SAN ANTONIO – San Antonio Chamber of Commerce leaders Tuesday announced the cancellation of the Stars & Stripes over San Antonio fireworks show on the Fourth of July.

Chamber President and CEO Richard Perez said the cancellation is due to construction projects in the Hemisfair Park area and at the Henry B. Gonzalez Convention Center.
