For over 40 years, the Junior League of Lubbock’s holiday market, Holiday Happening, has offered a festive way to kick off the holiday season while benefiting community projects. The five-day event—always held the week before Thanksgiving—at the Lubbock Memorial Civic Center- features more than 130 merchants, specialty ticketed events, a purse raffle and more. Holiday Happening serves as the primary fundraiser for the Junior League of Lubbock and contributes over $400,000 each year toward its endeavors.
Each donation of funds, in-kind contributions, time, and assistance means the Junior League can give more to the Lubbock community. If you would like to donate please call 806-794-8874 or email holidayhappening@jllubbock.com.
The 2026 Holiday Happening Merchant Application is now open. If you would like to be a merchant in 2026, please fill out the application.
