Music on Main ‘17 announces summer slate
The Downtown Bozeman Association is proud to present the 17th Annual Music on Main summer concert series! The fun will again take place on Thursday evenings in historic Downtown Bozeman from 6:30–8:30pm, June 29th through August 17th. Music on Main will be held between Rouse Ave. and Black Ave.
Bring the kids for the Coca Cola “Kids’ Zone” on S. Bozeman Ave. from 6:30–8pm, complete with bouncy houses, hula hooping, and more. Grab a bite to eat from one of many food vendors, stop by some local nonprofit booths providing an array of family activities, or step into a few of the downtown stores (open late!), and of course enjoy outstanding live music from popular local and regional bands. Also, enjoy the City of Bozeman’s Water Bottle Fill Station parked each week on the side of First Security Bank. Remember to bring your reusable water bottle, and stay hydrated for FREE with Bozeman’s crisp mountain water.
The music begins at 7pm and lasts until 8:30pm. Once again, The Clintons will kickoff the summer concert series on June 29th. Hawthorne Roots take over entertainment duties on July 6th, Satsang on July 13th, and Down North July 20th. Paige & The People’s Band are set for July 27th, followed by The Sweet Groovalicious Funk Machine on August 3rd and The Whiskey Gentry August 10th. Whitewater Ramble will close out the series on August 17th.
Music on Main is a FREE community event hosted by the Downtown Bozeman Association and nearly 100% funded by business sponsorships, making this event possible each and every year!
The Downtown Bozeman Association, the City of Bozeman and the Bozeman Police Department would also like to inform the public of the rules and regulations regarding the Open Container Waiver for the Music on Main summer concert series. The Open Container Waiver allows for anyone over the age of 21 to have an open container of alcohol in the event area from 6–9pm on Thursday nights, June 29th through August 17th ONLY. Anyone with an open container outside the perimeters before 6pm or after 9pm will be subject to a $100 open container ticket issued by the City of Bozeman.
There are also NO glass or aluminum containers, NO dogs, and NO coolers allowed in the event area. And breathe easy, Bozeman! Music on Main is now a Smoke and Vapor-free event. Smoking is ONLY allowed in designated areas outside the event so the environment is fun and safe for everyone attending.
