MontanaFair

This year, MontanaFair has some new additions when it comes to food. Perhaps the most notable: Rocky Mountain Oysters. I'm sure most people in this area are aware that Rocky Mountain Oysters is a slightly more appetizing name for bovine testicles...

These All Access ValuPasses are a pretty sweet deal if you plan on attending multiple events at MontanaFair this year. One thing that a lot of people may not realize is that they are transferable. In other words, if you want to go to Skynyrd, but couldn't care less about Martina McBride, someone else may use your pass to see that show...

The nation's relatively new fetish for craft beer has definitely sliced into some sales for the big boys, but Budweiser is still consumed by millions of people each month. If you go sit in a bar that has nationwide brand draft beers, you'll see the Bud and Bud Lite taps move pretty frequently...

I've ridden lots of thrill rides, but for some reason I just can't seem to get the nerve to ride the Sling Shot. I'm not sure if it's the fear of death, the fear of looking like an ass on YouTube from screaming, passing out, or even worse...

Phenomenist. Can you use that in a sentence, please? A phenomenist is one who believes in phenomenalism. Hmmm. What we do know is that it is a valid Scrabble word. What we also know is that you can a phenomenist live at MontanaFair...

It turns out that some of the most piercing shrieks at MontanaFair this year might not be coming from the thrill rides on the midway, but an alligator show.

Some of the best birthdays are filled with surprises, revelry and guests -- and MontanaFair's 100th anniversary celebration will be no exception. Usually, it's the guest of honor who is surprised. Not this time. Guests, otherwise known as fairgoers, are in for a surprise...

Some things in life really are free. We've got the proof. Monday, Aug. 10, from noon to 5 p.m., has been designated Senior Day at MontanaFair. The set-aside day is chock-full of free goodies, including free admission. Lunch is free followed by free ice cream...

The curtain had barely fallen on MontanaFair last year when the bulldozers moved in, leveling three antiquated, 1930s-era barns and stables. Bulldozing the outdated and dilapidated structures paved the way for a modern, 25,000-square-foot, $1 million Ag Barn. The facility, which can house up to 100 stables for horses and livestock, is part of a long-term capital improvement project at MetraPark. R

Young people of all ages will have access to an all-new, re-imagined destination at MontanaFair that was designed especially for them to explore, discover and connect with art and handmade crafts. It is called the Explorium. The main arena exhibit hall has been transformed into a must-stop station for young people to learn new things as well as participate in Lego building and contests, according
