Special events, festivals, and fairs have proven themselves vital pieces of our downtown & Billings economy. They attract visitors and generate tourism and workforce interest. They cultivate positive community identity and contribute to the economic health of the district.
Events are a vital piece of what we do to make Downtown Billings the preferred place to work, live and play.
We’re always looking for good volunteers! If you’re interested in getting involved, contact our Event Director, or sign up for our volunteer newsletter below:
