We hear it all the time that there’s nothing to do in Great Falls or there’s nowhere to find out information.

To help you out, The Electric teamed up with the Downtown Great Falls Association and Visit Great Falls Montana to compile a list of concerts coming to Great Falls this summer.

While you’re in town for a concert, check out local restaurants, bars and shops and make a weekend of it by throwing in some outdoor recreation experiences like hitting the river or the trails.

We have no plans to recreate a Hot Ticket publication (unless someone wants to be a major sponsor to fund a new employee to take that on), but between these three entities, there’s a ton of information already available and we’re going to experiment with packaging it fun ways for you readers.

Harley from DGFA and Jenn also put together a playlist for you with a sampling of all the artists and bands playing this summer that have music on Spotify.

We’ve got big plans for more event related collaborations coming your way soon!

We’ll do our best to update this list throughout the summer as needed, and watch the Downtown Great Falls and Visit Great Falls social media pages for weekly updates.
