Hemisfair relaunching La Semana music fest. Count its original producers as skeptics.
Editor's Note: This story was updated to clarify how Galaxy Productions responded to the Current's request for comment. Many San Antonio music fans were caught by surprise when Hemisfair officials earlier this week trumpeted the relaunch of San Antonio's decades-gone La Semana Alegre music festival. Officials at the downtown park and entertainment development said the new La Semana Alegre at Hemisfair will take place April 25-26 — a two-day event rather than the original Fiesta event's week-plus blowout.
