Experience historic Lincoln after dark during an evening of live music, local food, history and frontier spirit at the Lincoln After Dark & Music Festival on Saturday, October 3.

Presented by the Friends of the Lincoln Historic Site, the evening features live music from The Dynamic Duo, featuring Spencer Gandy and Mark Garcia, along with food vendors, local merchants and a little education about the legendary Lincoln County War.

Before the evening festivities begin, head to the historic courthouse for a screening of the cult Western-horror movie Billy the Kid Versus Dracula—an appropriately offbeat way to begin an October night in one of New Mexico’s most storied Old West communities.
