From Pancakes To Parades: Must-Attend Events In Vibrant Lubbock

Hey Lubbock, it’s that time of year again when the Hub City is buzzing with some of the best annual events, and there’s something for everyone! Whether you’re into pancakes, parades, or holiday lights, this town knows how to bring the fun.

Of course, there’s the Fourth on Broadway Parade, as Nando Losoya will tell you, it’s the biggest Independence Day celebration in West Texas with live music, food trucks, and, of course, fireworks that light up the Lubbock sky.

If you’re into spooky, scary fun, Brittany Bell suggests Nightmare on 19th Street, Lubbock's go-to haunted attraction. Perfect for Halloween vibes!

For a festive touch, don’t miss Holiday Happening, as Christina Ochoa Martinez and Elyse Kuss both remind us—it’s a shopping and holiday event that brings joy to everyone in attendance. And don’t forget Carol of Lights on the Texas Tech campus, one of Casey Freisinger’s favorite traditions. It's one of my family's favs too!

Want something for the whole family? Listener Kari Leanne Levacy-Torres recommends Santa Land and the Pumpkin Trail at the Arboretum, plus the Miracles Christmas Parade is always a festive Christmassy time!

From the Blue Ribbon Rally to the HorrOddity Expo, Lubbock’s got events all year that are perfect for making memories.
