Blue House Productions is reviving its signature music gathering in Lubbock this September. Good Times Fest 2026 will take place at The Garden, an outdoor venue located at 1801 Buddy Holly Ave in the historic Depot District, providing a central, family‑friendly setting for the community.
Festival Schedule
September 10 – Discovery Night: The opening night features a Battle of the Bands where five local groups—Slander, Wasted Potential, Leon Carrasco, Bongo Sol, and All About Alice—compete for top honors. A special performance by My Serenity rounds out the evening.
September 11 – Good Night: Friday’s lineup includes Passengers Unknown, Paint Rock, Sundowning, Indego, and No Ballads, delivering a mix of indie and alternative sounds for festival‑goers.

Sunset Market and Community Activities
Beyond the stages, Mo’s Sunset Market will operate throughout the weekend, offering food trucks, local vendors, a festival photobooth, giveaways, and drink specials. The market creates a lively atmosphere for attendees to mingle, shop, and enjoy West Texas hospitality.
Tickets and Access
Tickets are sold individually for each night or as a weekend pass through the Blue House Lbk website. While a festival ticket grants entry to the music performances, the Sunset Market remains open to the public without a ticket, ensuring that anyone can experience the local food and craft offerings.
