Montana businesses have stepped up to meet and exceed the challenge grant made possible by the Dennis and Phyllis Washington Foundation in conjunction with Montana Resources for the 2024 Montana Folk Festival, returning to Butte July 12, 13 and 14.

Organizers have announced the second wave of performers coming to the Montana Folk Festival in Butte, Montana this July 12-14. “It’s shaping up to be a strong lineup for this July's Montana Folk Festival packed with master musicians and dancers” says Festival Director George Everett. "You can expect to find plenty that's familiar but also to be amazed at the variety and diversity of the event."

Montana Folk Fest 2024 is going to be something to remember, so join me as we get to know and hear the first 7 artists unveiled.

The Dennis and Phyllis Washington Foundation in conjunction with Montana Resources has awarded a total of $200,000 to support the Montana Folk Festival in 2024. This year, $100,000 will be awarded to the Montana Folk Festival which must be matched by contributions from other Montana businesses.

This will be the 14th year overall for the festival in Butte

The Montana Folk Festival has given us the final pieces of the performer puzzle, announcing the last seven acts slated to perform at this year’s festival.

One of the coolest Butte events is the Montana Folk Festival, July 8th through July 10th, 2022. From the vast folk music to Scandinavian Chip Carving and Ukrainian Easter eggs...if it's interesting and 'folksy', it's happening this weekend in Butte, Montana.
