Small theatre with a big heart. So glad we decided to go! The Neil McCoy show was excellent. We will definitely be keeping an eye out for more events here!
Real old school but had a good time. Blue Water Highway is a must see, really enjoyed them. We will definitely be back!
Steel drivers were excellent. The ladies at the concession stand were amazing and very friendly. Love the atmosphere here.
Rumours was Amazing ! They did a fantastic cover of White Wing Dove. The young man who portrayed Lindsey Buckingham is an excellent guitarist. The whole band was exceptional.
My mom and I had the best time at the Michael Martin Murphey concert. The owners mom came and talked to my mom and was so kind and considerate of her. We love this place and have been to four shows.
Cactus Theater is the best! We are privileged to see and hear some of the greatest music in the country!! Lazer Lloyd was one of my favorites!! One more thing, this theater has all great seats, excellent acoustics, affordable and a great snack bar!!
Love this place!! Ive been here so many times throughout the years and always had a great time! Love the variety shows as well as the tributes.
We visited the Cactus Theater for the first time December 7th, 2019 and loved it!!! My husband and I saw Michael Martin Murphys Cowboy Christmas there and the theater was an amazing place to hear a concert. Great Sound and great place!! I am glad to see something from our past being used in away that gives justice to why it was created in the first place. Not another antique store or resturant. Michael Martin Murphy still has a great voice go see him also if you get the chance.
Michael Martin Murphys Christmas show was outstanding! His storytelling ability along with the wonderful music made this show fantastic! Would highly recommend to all!
Historic staple in Lubbock. We love the Cactus theater, the entertainment, and the staff! Never disappoints!
Enjoyed the show but seating is very crowded. No leg room and if you are by the wall, everyone has to move out if you need out. We thought we had aisle seats. The map wasnt clear.
The tribute show was phenomenal and the staff treated us like they knew us our whole life, make the show if you can
An extremely enjoyable night at the Cactus Theater once again. For those who missed Lazer Lloyd last night... Make sure you catch him next time hes back in town. Lazer and his band were amazing!
ABBA band was so much fun....what a wonderful group of folks. We left with happy hearts...
Enjoyed very much. Johnny RODRIGUEZ WAS WONDERFULPLAN ON COMING TO SEE MORE SHOWS THERE
Small theater for local talent. For a moderate sized city, the talent here is amazing. The Vavtua Theater is the PERFECT place for our great talent to perform. The process is reasonable and a GREAT place to spend a couple of hours on a Saturday night. It was our first time there but it will definitely not be our last.
Enjoyed Dry Comedy Bar with some friends and enjoyed it.
The show was so much fun. We walked out after the show was done and ordered tickets for Willi waylon show. We love this place. Staff is so friendly and appreciated of the guests.
Amazing atmosphere. Such an intimate space, I felt so close to the band. Clean and comfortable seating. Best money spent on live entertainment, it was the best value the price was so reasonable. They have a concession stand with drinks for adults and children. The owners are friendly and hands on in their business which you just cant find now a days. Truly a local treasure! Im definitely looking forward to my next visit . Check it out if youre in town and if you live here and havent experienced it, you need to go youll have an amazing night!
The Cactus is the best place in town for awesome, local (and sometimes not local) entertainment.
We love this place. Always good.
Have been twice this month!Both times the performance was Awesome. Outstanding Bands and singers. Such great entertainment!Saw the Top Rock 80s, and The Eagles/Neil Diamond. Cant describe how good they were. Will certainly be back!
Great! Top talent local acts as well as big name national acts in a unique historic venue.
Love, love, LOVE this venue. Some of the greatest musical experiences, Ive ever had, were in this building.
My brother and sister used to go there and they were really good
Love the fact that they have the best Classic Country singers there!
We love going to the shows here. They are really good about getting different varieties of music and entertainers here for their patrons. We have never been disappointed.
AWESOME COVER FLEETWOOD MAC COVER BAND!
An experience of its very own with talent abound, great atmosphere, food/drinks
This is an incredibly beautiful, immaculate theater. The owner has done some remodeling and is taking huge steps to bring name brand acts to this venue. There really was not a bad seat in the house. I saw The Allman Betts Band here and the staff there was extremely friendly. I would highly recommend and I will be back. Thanks..
We have so much fun at the Cactus!
Great shows. Just saw Dailey &Vincent. Great way to spend a hot afternoon.
We have seen several concerts here over the years.
Excellent spot to catch a show. I love how they are expanding the types of shows and being a bit less conservative. Ticket fees are kind of high, and you pay them online or at the door so its a bit of a hit, but ticket prices seem fair and the quality of entertainment is outstanding.
No cactuses but a fun place good atmosphere.
Enjoyed hearing and singing along to the Neil Diamond and Journey songs. Very special night. The proprietor went out of his way to welcome as many as he could
Excellent venue for cozy entertainment by first class performers!
This is one of my favorite spots in Lubbock.
Smaller venue but very comfortable atmosphere. The lobby/concession area was very small and hard to form a line without blocking every exit/entrance but theyre restricted to their size. Will attend an event again.
Love concerts here. Acoustics and atmosphere make it great. Concessions available.
Great place for family entertainment! Very clean and friendly people! Went to see Michael Firestone..as Michael Jackson..so great! My 10 and 15 yr old boys loved it! Will definitely go back!!
Went for the first time tonight and it was amazing! The staff was friendly and went out of their way to make us feel welcomed. This will definitely become a new favorite date night.
Fun little classic restored theater in the heart of Lubbock, the Depot District. Nice talent comes often and tickets can be bought online. The theater is across the street from Triple Js Brewery and if you have kids the beer garden located on the North side of Triple Js has a ice skating rink, live music, Mexican Street food truck, and a full service bar. Great family area.
Great entertainment and very friendly people
Stadium seating isnt much of a stadium. Difficult to see the stage the farther back you get.
The 80s group last night completely rocked! No leotards ...but nonetheless.... they rocked .it!
Great entertainment at a reasonable price! Nice people!!
My husband and I especially enjoy going to concerts at the Cactus. It is a converted old Theater that allows for an intimate experience with the band. Its historic charm more than makes up for the limitations of it being a smaller and older venue. Don Caldwell deserves Kudos for scheduling superb shows that showcase the creative talents of South Plains musicians. They offer a good selection of refreshments at the bar, including popcorn, beer, wine and spirits. It was a genuine pleasure to find such a true gem in the heart of the Hub city. Some of the best restaurants in town, as well as local wineries and the Buddy Holly Museum are located nearby. So next time you are in Lubbock, plan an exciting, fun filled day around your visit to the Cactus Theater.
I absolutely love this place it has a real good vibe, not crowded, and cheap yet delicious food
Great comedy shows!
1st time there...great place!
It looks at one time it was a theater so seating is staggered from the front to the rear. Went to see Ray Wylie Hubbard and the sound reverberated off the walls with excellence. Great place and great entertainment.
Superb,greatest show ever, Dailey * Vincent.
The atmosphere! Never disappointed!
Always have great shows! Great entertainment.
It was absolutely AWESOME ️
Atmosphere was great, friendly people. Only downside were seat cushion felt like hard cardboard.
Wonderful venue to enjoy great Local and touring talent. If youve never been then come, if its been a while since your last visit then come again. Lubbocks BEST (period)
Quaint theater for a very intimate show! Owner is super nice. There was a couple of seats that somehow got bought twice. They took care of both sets of customers.
Went to see the Hodge twins comedy show, theater was sold out and it was such a great show. Hopefully more comedy acts can be brought in!!
Allman -Betts Band was Fantastic, SOUND was GREAT, Had a WONDERFUL EVENING!!
This was the most fun Ive had in ages. So much talent in the show. Highly recommend
Went to see Ned Ledoux and it was awesome. The theatre is very retro and uptempo very different from you every day concert venue
Doesnt matter where you sit, the sound is awesome and you can see the performers very well!!
Went to see the Ventures. Awesome experience!
Great shows for any music lover!
Has always been a five star.We went on May 5 to see Asleep At The Wheel and what a show. The owner is great and accommodating. We are loyal patrons and try to go whenever we can. We even went there over Easter to see the classic old movie Ben Hur.....great idea. Put Cactus Theater on your calender and buy tickets in advance !
Great music, fun atmosphere!
Old 1950s theatre! Lubbock staple. only holds 200 or so but shows here are very intimate.
I stopped in briefly during First Friday Art Trail. The lady at the front gave us a very sincere HI and Come On In. We entered the theatre and met the new owners who were friendly and excited to announce artwork/murals on display. I have not been here for a concert yet but look forward to going. We also got free popcorn which won my daughter over...she LOVES popcorn!
We recently went to the Cactus theater for a early evening concert with Marsha Ball. We enjoyed the evening very much. The theater offers a intimate atmosphere also drinks and popcorn is offered. Great date place for the over 40 crowd
Awesome place to attend and see great acts!
This was unbelievably great !!
Great night out. Definitely recommend if you like the genre of music being performed. Ive been to country legends and best of the 80s. Looking forward to led zepplin!
If you get a chance, check this place out! They always have great acts performing! The owners are very proud of their work and they are very friendly to speak with!
Recently attended the 80s Tribute show. The band musicians were second to none. I would highly recommend seeing this show. However, the engineer running Front of House sound ran the show so loud that by the end of the show the speakers were playing distortion. House gear isnt cheap as theyre using a Midas M32 console, but the volume levels were just too high. Poor decisions made by the engineer detract from the performance.
This is a great local get away thats super affordable. Always featuring great musical talent of many many genres. Ran by some of the most friendly folks.
Not the same anymore. Was once a 5 star attraction and used to go 2-3 times a month. Not much for the shows that are being scheduled loved the local musicians. Have not been there since last Journey show and will probably not be going for a while. It was fun while it lasted.
Great show from Dailey and Vincent
Absolutely love everything about the Cactus and who it brings to Lubbock.
The tribute tonight was AWESOME!!!
Saw the Micheal Jackson tribute show and it was awesome. Got to take meet and greet pics
Great venue!
I went to the Storyteller concert! Its a very nostalgic place. Love it!
Enjoyed the show we went to see
Staff is very friendly. Shows are good. We have enjoyed going there.
I love this place! They bring in a variety of great shows.
Great night of entertainment.
Staff and clients were extremely nice.
Really good show! Great singers!
Show was great. Theater was ok, I like the nostalgia but they had alot of equipment malfunctions.
We just love going to see and perform at the Cactus!
No. I loved it.
Went to see Don McLean. Place is just the right size.
