After consultation with the National Weather Service about the high probability for thunderstorms tomorrow [Tuesday] afternoon and evening, Lubbock ISD middle schools will not be participating in the 34th annual Band Extravaganza tomorrow.
Student safety is of the highest priority and PlainsCapital Park does not have the available space to shelter all students should it be necessary to move them due to storms and lightning.
High school performances will continue as planned. If any changes are made to the high school band schedules, updated information will be sent out tomorrow.
The 34th annual Band Extravaganza will begin at 7 p.m. on Tuesday, September 26 at PlainsCapital Park – Lowery Field, 66th St. and Ave. P. The annual event will feature the UIL performances from all four of Lubbock ISD’s high schools. Tickets are $5 in advance and may be purchased from any Lubbock ISD band student. Tickets will also be available at the gate for $6.
