If you’re looking to get out of New Mexico this weekend without making it all about concerts, Lubbock and Amarillo both have a few solid options on deck. Lubbock has the stronger variety play, while Amarillo leans more family-friendly and event-based this weekend. [cooksgarage](http://cooksgarage.us/west-texas-roundup/?ref=newmexicomadness.com)

In Lubbock, the biggest draw is **Blue Man Group** at Buddy Holly Hall, running March 20 through March 22 with its usual mix of comedy, visuals, percussion, and weird-in-a-good-way stage energy. If you want something more laid back, the **West Texas Roundup** at Cook’s Garage is set for March 20 and 21 with pre-1963 hot rods, customs, vendors, food, and swap-meet style browsing. Saturday also brings the **Wolfforth Farmers Market**, which is promoting more than 200 vendors, food trucks, produce, and handmade goods.

Amarillo’s main family pick this weekend is **Jurassic Quest**, with sessions listed March 20 and 21 at the Tri-State Fairgrounds. If you’d rather catch something with more live-action energy, the **Amarillo Wranglers** are also on the schedule at the Amarillo Civic Center Coliseum during the same weekend window.

If you’re choosing one city, Lubbock is probably the better bet for adults or mixed groups looking for options beyond one single event. Amarillo makes more sense if you want a quick family stop and an easy in-and-out kind of weekend plan.
