If there’s one thing Montanans love, it’s a celebration. While it’s true that most of us prefer a low-key off-the-grid life, when it comes time to get together, we certainly know how to have a good time.

There will be numerous fall festivals in the Treasure State this year, and they’re all worth checking out. But if you can only make one, head to Billings for the annual HarvestFest on October 8, 2022. This annual event has fun activities for the whole family to enjoy.

Each year, the Downtown Billings Alliance and Montana Brewing Company host HarvestFest on the second Saturday in October.
