“Zootown Festival makes for ‘magical’ weekend in its second year,” exclaimed The Missoulian of this past June’s edition. In its second year, Zootown won the Montana Tourism Destination of the Year Award, and firmly established itself as one of the premiere destination festivals in the U.S., with fans from all 50 states showing up to take advantage of the festival’s unique proximity to the wide open spaces and outdoor adventures available to attendees. Located in a historic city nestled at the junction of five majestic mountain valleys, no other music festival offers the unique opportunity to spend the morning flyfishing or kayaking on a pristine river before heading into town for an unforgettable lineup of world class performances later in the afternoon. Missoula, MT is the kind of place you don’t need a music festival as an excuse to visit, but getting to watch your favorite artists on stage while the golden hour sun sets over the Bitterroot Mountains makes for an unforgettable experience.
