Fall in the Hub City wouldn’t be complete without the City of Lubbock's Pumpkin Trail, one of Lubbock’s most beloved seasonal traditions. What Is the Lubbock Pumpkin Trail? Just in case you've never been, the Pumpkin Trail is a very family-friendly event put on by the City of Lubbock. Make sure your pumpkin is freshly carved so it doesn't get yucky during the trail. You must be 14+ to volunteer at the Pumpkin Trail.
