PLEASE READ THIS SECTION CAREFULLY AS THERE ARE SOME CHANGES!

We are starting earlier this year than previous years. So please be sure to fill out the application and pay in full, for your application to be subbited for approval. Even with the price increases for this year, we are proud to say that Lubbock-Con is still the most affordable pop-culture related event in the area for vendors, artists, and creators. Purchase your space as quickly as possible, because we have been selling out faster every year!
