Another year for Cotton Fest Lubbock, another great lineup.
Lubbock, Texas is gearing up for one of its biggest events of the summer – Cotton Fest! Now in its sixth year, Cotton Fest boasts an impressive lineup. With headline acts, including Pat Green, William Clark Green, Hub City Drifters, The Panhandlers, Mike Ryan, 49 Winchester, Jacob Stelly, The Weathered Souls, Josh Weathers, Aiden Logsdon, Treaty Oak Revival, Red Clay Strays, Slade Coulter, Carter Faith and Haydon Wiginton. That’s just the beginning of what’s in store for attendees.
What sets Cotton Fest apart from the rest? It’s the largest Bring Your Own Booze (BYOB) music festival in the Lone Star State! Something a little different this year is that the festivities kick off in June. This schedule change was made intentionally made to ensure that even the busiest cotton farmers could join after wrapping up their planting season.
Something for everyone.
With families in mind, Cotton Fest offers a myriad of activities to enjoy alongside the stellar musical performances. From your favorite food trucks to cozy camping sites, and even the ever-entertaining spectacle of mutton bustin’, there’s something for everyone at Cotton Fest.
Will himself shared some advice with us for first-timers: Arrive in style with Uber, pack your trusty lawn chairs, stock up your cooler, and most importantly, adhere to the festival rules for a grand time!
But the excitement doesn’t stop there. On Tuesday before the festival, kick off the festivities with a special golf tournament, with proceeds benefiting the High Cotton Relief Fund. This great nonprofit supports local farmers and agricultural families during challenging times, ensuring they can find comfort when they need it most.
