Who is the Best Band in Montana? You can decide! This March, bands will battle it out on the Helena Civic Center auditorium and ballroom stages to fight for the title of “Best Montana Band”! The event will showcase a dozen Montana bands with six bands playing in the ballroom and six bands playing in the auditorium. Bands were invited to enter based on highest number of public nominations via a previous FB poll.
The event will have a live audience with up to 220 people per stage. Both stages will be streamed onto the big screens in the other room as well as live streamed right into your living room. The winner will be voted on by the public the night of the battle and will receive the first ever “Best Montana Band” trophy and a cash prize.

Lewis and Clark Brewing will be on tap providing bar service and food options will be provided by some amazing Helena vendors! Come out and support local Montana bands, your Helena Civic Center stages and have a little fun with friends.
