Music on Main is almost here! Bozeman’s incredibly popular summertime community gathering and concert series kicks off on Main Street between Rouse and Black on July 6, and will continue every Thursday from 6:30-8:30 p.m. through Aug. 10. Music on Main features a rotation of food and drink vendors, kids’ activities nearby, and of course, excellent live music, which begins at 7 p.m. and goes until the end of each event. Music on Main events are hosted by the Downtown Bozeman Association and are completely free and open to the public.
The event draws around 3,000 people each week, made up of families, students, visitors— anyone who enjoys great music, good food, and the company of friends.
Bozeman is lined with specialty shops, and many stay open late if you are interested in a little shopping. The offerings are varied; you’ll find clothing, new and used books, antiques, and outdoor gear.

Attendees over the age of 21 are allowed to consume alcohol from 6-9 p.m. within the designated event area only. Beverages must be purchased from a licensed vendor on-site. Violations of this rule can result in a $100 open container ticket.
