Lubbock to Zia Park is just under two hours. For anyone that’s road tripped for a show, that’s absolutely nothing. It’s a breeze, a getaway, and a rockin’ good time for our winners. So how about it, are you ready to rock in New Mexico?<\/p>\n

So let’s talk about that drive to Zia Park. You take 62\/82 through Wolfforth and Brownfield, through Hobbs and you’re there. It may, in fact, be the simplest drive you’ll ever make. Just hit that road headed South\/southwest\/west, and you’re good.<\/p>\n

So what will you find a Zia Park? Of course there is a racetrack, a casino, dining and more. It’s up to you how much time you spend visiting. It’s also not unrealistic to hit the concert and be back home around midnight.<\/p>\n
