Have a Holly Jolly Holiday with Holiday Happening! For the previous 40 years, Lubbock and the surrounding communities have started the holiday season with the Junior League of Lubbock. That’s 40 years of shopping, smiles, fun and festivities and in this, our 41st year, we hope to celebrate with each of you.

While the shopping and fun are a key part of Holiday Happening, it is about so much more! It’s about raising money to give back to the local community. Over the years, Holiday Happening has raised more than $7 million directly benefitting the South Plains through our own projects, such as South Plains Food2Kids, Kids in the Kitchen and SPARK. Holiday Happening funds have also supported local agencies including Hope Lodge, Ronald McDonald House, and the Children’s Advocacy Center.

As we celebrate the start of the holiday season, we look forward to sharing it with you while we reflect on our past and continue to find new ways to welcome in the holiday season.

Join us for the 41st annual Holiday Happening — A Holly Jolly Holiday!
