It won’t be before the actual release date in April when 18.04 was first released (April 26) but could be any day from then until the end of the month.

The date/time is usually provided in official ML announcements (which get repeated like was done with the fridge announcement I provided link to; that propogate, eg. the “Planet” tag at the bottom caused it to appear on Planet Ubuntu also) ; they apply to main Ubuntu and all flavors like Lubuntu.

Note: the EOL of flavors don’t get posted to the fridge except what has already been posted there 6 times now, ie.

Maintenance updates will be provided for 5 years for Ubuntu Desktop, Ubuntu Server, Ubuntu Cloud, and Ubuntu Core. Ubuntu Studio will be supported for 9 months. All the remaining flavours will be supported for 3 years.

So your answer is not before 26-April-2021, and the end of the month of April 2021; for Lubuntu Support.

You can use ubuntu-support-status to view the status of your actual install. Packages on your system from the ‘main’ archive will be supported until April-2023 (same dates of month apply).
