Living here in Butte, people think that their only options are to go to a restaurant, a bar, or a casino. I've made it my personal mission to dissuade those who feel this way and to inform the greater region beyond Butte that we in fact do have a ton of cool stuff going on every weekend.

Don't believe me? Here are 5 of the best events you don't want to miss this weekend (August 9th - 11th, 2024) in Butte.
