Held annually each January in Lewistown, the Montana Winter Fair is a celebration of Montana agriculture and our enviable “western way of life”. In 2019, over 25 events will take place throughout town between January 18th and the 27th. These events showcase the strong ties we have to our rural agricultural lifestyle here in Central Montana.
If you're feeling up for a challenge, check out the Skijoring (new!), Ranch Sorting Clinic & Competition, Arm Wrestling, Chess Tournament (new!) & Polar Plunge. If you'd like to keep the kids busy, be sure to take in the Stick Horse Rodeo, Old McDonald’s Barn, Meet & Greet with the Ice Queen and Youth Beef Show.
Savor the Flavor of Montana (new!), Dutch Oven cooking, and Chili & Cinnamon Roll competitions will tempt your tummies, while the Open Fiddle Contest, Quilt Show & Workshops, Fiber Arts Show & Workshops and Re-creations Show and Sale bring an artistic flair to the fair. Highlights of the fair include the Farm & Ranch Trade Show, which brings vendors from around the state to showcase their wares, and the Night Show featuring Havre's Milk River Band, who play country music, covers and more!
With the exception of the Night Show, Skijoring and Savor the Flavor events, there is no charge for spectator access to Montana Winter Fair events and activities. Event participation, fees and registration forms are available on individual event pages. For additional Montana Winter Fair information, email montanawinterfair@gmail.com.
