Tickets are now available for the first annual Lubbock Uncorked, a wine festival hosted by the Lubbock Chamber of Commerce, to be held on Friday, April 15, from 3-9 p.m. at the Louise Hopkins Underwood Center for the Arts (LHUCA).

The stage will be set for 20-30 wineries from Lubbock and across the state as well as around the world to share their various wines and education on products and the industry. The event will feature wine tastings, boutique beer tastings, food from local restaurants including food trucks, some of the best music Lubbock has to offer and classes geared toward wine education.

Tickets are on sale now for $25 at www.selectaseatlubbock.com and will be available for purchase at the Chamber office beginning March 14. Tickets can also be bought the day of the event for $30. The price of admission will include wine and food tastings as well as a commemorative wine glass while supplies last.

Help celebrate one of Lubbock’s best kept secrets – a growing, thriving wine industry that includes some of the best wine makers and grape growers in the country.
