Mothers Day Weekend PICKS: Thursday, May 8th thru Sunday, May 11th
Does it get any nicer than this? Matching up spectacular weather with UM Grad Weekend, and Mothers Day Weekend? There is way too much fun stuff going on, and The MUG is here to help you and your crew make plans to make to most of it all. All the happenings are here for Western Montana with The Missoula Underground’s Mothers Day Weekend PICKS!
If you’re a fan of great food trucks (and who isn’t?), you can catch a whole bunch in one place (and for a good cause at the Cancer Support Community’s 4th Annual Food Truck Festival in Ogren Park at Allegiance Field in Missoula from 4:00 pm to 9:00 pm Friday.
The farmers’ market season is well underway, including Polson on Friday and all the ones in Downtown Missoula, Hamilton, Kalispell, and Stevensville on Saturday morning. The MUG’s Western Montana Summer Farmers Markets guide is ready to help – save the link and get around to all of ’em over the next several months.
MCT’s staging of Rodgers & Hammerstein’s “Cinderella 2025” continues their run, with performances all weekend, and thru Sunday at Missoula Children’s Theatre.
We have around 70 live music events listed for the weekend – take your pick! It’s officially patio season now. You can’t go wrong with seeking out any and all of the fantastic area rooftop bars and patios to soak in this fantastic spring Montana weather.
No matter what direction you wanna get outta town, you can’t go wrong. Lots of spring weekend activities and events are happening not only around Missoula, but all the way up the Flathead and the Bitterroot valleys, east to Phillipsburg and Anaconda, and out west past Alberton. If you’re headed up to Whitefish and Glacier, there are some outstanding pit stops to make along the way.
Get out & enjoy our locally-owned bars & restaurants with Montana grown / made food and beverages – they need your business! Try a new local brew! Support our local artists and vendors at the area markets. Take the family for a brisk outdoor hike. It’s prime time for a spring mountain bike ride. Spring fishing is rockin’. Catch a classic movie screening or a stand-up comedy night. Stretch that big brain at one of the local trivia nights. Sing your favorite karaoke song, or catch a live music show. Enjoy safely and responsibly.
