With summer in full swing, it’s the perfect time to get together with the whole family for some quality fun. One of the best ways to do that is to head over to the annual Montana State Fair! What’s better than eating cotton candy, checking out livestock, and enjoying the exciting carnival rides? This summer, come and check out all that the 85 annual Montana State Fair has to offer. The Montana State Fair is open from August 12th through the 20th. On top of all the fun parts of a fair that you know and love such as carnival games and all the fried food you can manage, there are also exciting, entertaining events as well!

Coming back this year is Montana’s own Crawford Bros. Band. The band will once again play at the Montana State Fair.
