Music
Montana’s Yellowstone Country isn’t just mountains, rivers and outdoor adventures—it’s all those things on top of a lively arts and culture scene, including music. This region is home to venues of all sizes and music of all styles, from classic country to modern hits and everything in between. Cities like Bozeman bring in big-name bands to venues like The Rialto, while smaller towns promise front-row seats in an intimate atmosphere. So, whether you’re looking to dance the weekend away or catch local bands in a brewery, there’s always something going on.
If one night of entertainment isn’t enough, immerse yourself further into the music and natural wonder of Yellowstone Country at a music festival. From the Red Lodge Music Festival to the Big Sky Concert Series, these unique annual events draw in music-lovers from around the world.
