All about Lubbock
In the southeastern corner of the Texas Panhandle, the town of Lubbock is known for its vibrant arts scene, with state-of-the-art theaters, museums, and galleries. Almost every night, you’re sure to find live music happening somewhere, whether it be at one of the city’s many performance halls, a local dive, or on the patio of a craft brewery.

Lubbock is a college town, home to Texas Tech University, whose museum includes Lubbock Lake Landmark, an archaeological and natural history preserve. Located at the northern edge of the city, the site shows evidence of almost 12,000 years of human habitation in the region. The campus museum also includes the 27-acre National Ranching Heritage Center, an outdoor historical park packed with original structures including a railroad depot, saddle store, and homesteads. After a day of seeing the sights, stop by one of Lubbock’s barbecue restaurants.
