San Antonio Is Hosting A Wild Mariachi Festival For Free Next Month
If you're from San Antonio then you know by now that the city is very much looking forward to Fiesta next month. From Thursday, April 16 until Sunday, April 26, you'll be able to spot San Antonians celebrating Fiesta in a variety of ways and at a variety of places! Next month, Fiesta on the San Antonio River Walk will include a three-day mariachi festival and whether you're a longtime fan of the music or are just coming around to it, you won't want to miss this.
From Tuesday, April 21 until Thursday, April 23, you can stop by the San Antonio River Walk to enjoy the incredible Ford Mariachi Festival from 7:30 to 9:30 p.m.
The event has been hosted since 1972 and it returns each and every year better than the last!
Each mariachi group will be performing on boats and sailing along the river to give everyone at the River Walk the chance to enjoy their music.
Whether you're walking along the River Walk or sitting outside at one of the tourist destination's many restaurants and businesses, you'll get to enjoy performances from many mariachi groups.
The groups will be in traditional mariachi and folkloric costumes to really set the tone for each evening. Not only will adults be performing, but children will too!
