History
Written by Team Fiesta!
April 1, 1950 marked Mr. Ralph Edwards’ first visit to officially change the name of Hot Springs to Truth or Consequences. At the time no one could have guessed the impact of this historical decision—not even Mr. Edwards himself! He made his yearly pilgrimage to T or C far longer than originally stipulated, because he fell in love with Sierra County.
In 2006, Truth or Consequences' Mayor made the official proclamation: every April, the town would gather to honor the man and his generous contributions, which spanned over fifty years.
We hope you will join us in kicking off the Fiesta season during this fun night of music, dancing, delicious food, and a celebration of our town’s brush with Hollywood!
