We’re excited to invite you to participate in the 48th Annual Lubbock Arts Festival, happening Saturday, April 18, 2026, from 10:00 AM–6:00 PM, and Sunday, April 19, 2026, from 11:00 AM–5:00 PM, at the Lubbock Memorial Civic Center (1501 Mac Davis Lane).
The Festival has received multiple “Best in Texas” awards from the Texas Festivals & Events Association (TFEA), as well as “Grand Pinnacle” awards from the International Festivals and Events Association. We are expecting a crowd of more than 10,000 attendees this year.
The 2026 Lubbock Arts Festival will also host the ART-LINX Arts Festival Directors Conference, welcoming arts festival leaders from across the country. These visiting directors will be on site to learn from our team and experience the festival firsthand, providing a unique opportunity to showcase the Lubbock Arts Festival on a national level. This also offers artists, performers, and organizations an opportunity to shine, as their work and engagement will be seen by arts professionals from across the nation. Notable conference attendees include: Crystal Bridges Museum of American Art (AR), Saint Louis Art Fair (MO), and Art in the Loop (TN).
The 2026 festival theme is “Bloom,” celebrating flowers and their connection to creativity, imagination, and the visual arts.

What “Artsy Ambassadors” do:
· Booth Sitters - a volunteer who watches an artist's booth for short breaks, answers basic questions, and keeps items safe.
· Snap photos of our guests at various Selfie Stations throughout the Festival. You'll assist them in using their phones to take pictures and help them send those photos to us for a chance to win cool prizes.
· General Volunteer - Be flexible and help out at the Lubbock Arts Festival, where needed!
