Let’s be honest. Not every weekend needs to involve a streaming marathon, a snack-induced coma, or yet another deep dive into your fantasy football regrets. If your idea of weekend fun is starting to feel a little too predictable, maybe it’s time to switch it up with fun local activities. Lubbock has more to offer than just your couch and a remote.
From adrenaline-fueled activities to laugh-out-loud nights with friends, there are plenty of local activities to break the routine and make some memories. Whether you’re looking for something active, creative, or just plain weird, we’ve got you covered with ideas.
- Axe Throwing at Raider’s Axe Gallery & Entertainment. Unleash your inner warrior with a bit of target practice. Nothing brings a group together like the shared thrill of flinging sharp objects at a wooden bullseye. Plus, yelling your ex’s name while doing it? Therapeutic.
- DIY Mystery Dinner Night. Bring the drama home with a mystery dinner. Assign everyone a character, pick a theme, and turn your living room into a crime scene or a spaceship. Bonus points if someone shows up in a full alien costume with a fake badge.
- Glow in the Dark Mini Golf. Classic putt-putt with a neon twist. The glowing obstacles and trippy lighting add just enough chaos to keep things competitive and hilarious. It’s the perfect mix of fun and frustration.
There’s no rule that says your weekends have to be boring. You can always find quirky, exciting local activities to do. You just have to be willing to try something new. So round up your friends, ditch the TV, and make this weekend one to remember.
