Fiesta After Dark: Your Guide to a Hilarious San Antonio Weekend (That Doesn't Involve Remembering the Alamo!)
So you're in San Antonio, and you're looking to liven up your weekend? Well, saddle up, partner, because we've got a corral full of events that'll have you saying "yeehaw" (or maybe just "wow, that was unexpected").
From rocking concerts to artsy shindigs, here's the lowdown on how to make your San Antonio stay legendary (or at least mildly entertaining):
Music for Your Ears (and Maybe Your Dancing Shoes):
- Calling all psychonauts! The legendary Austin rockers, The Black Angels, are bringing their mind-bending tunes to the Stable Hall stage on Friday night. Get ready for a light show that'll make you question reality. (Just don't blame us if you wake up with a sudden urge to tie-dye your socks.)
- Feeling a little more country? Head over to Floore's Country Store in Helotes for a dose of 70s and 80s nostalgia with The Bellamy Brothers. These guys are living proof that cowboy hats never go out of style (and neither does good music, apparently).
Art that Won't Put You to Sleep (Unless You're Really Tired):
- Feeling fancy? The San Antonio Museum of Art is hosting "Art on Tap: Hora Feliz," a happy hour with a twist. Think themed tours, mariachis serenading you with classic breakup anthems (because what's art without a little heartbreak?), and enough margaritas to make even the grumpiest museum critic loosen up.
- More of a film buff? Swing by Slab Cinema Arthouse for the premiere of "I Remember," the latest music video by Jaoquin & The Glowliners. Bonus points for spotting the most outrageous vintage outfit in the crowd.
Pro Tip: Remember, these are just a few highlights! There's a whole herd of events happening in San Antonio this weekend. Check out Visit San Antonio for the full scoop.
