Join us for a festive evening celebrating America’s 250th on Saturday, June 27th from 5–9 PM at the Heritage Center and the Montana Capitol Lawn. This community celebration will bring history to life with live musical performances by the Magpie Singers, Helena Xpress Singers, and the spirited sounds of the Glacier Fife and Drum Corps during a 5pm reception inside the new Heritage Center.

Enjoy delicious fare from Chili O’Brien’s, with beverages served by Silver Star, as you mingle with friends, neighbors, and fellow history enthusiasts. Whether you come for the music, the food, or the shared sense of celebration, this event offers a lively and meaningful way to honor our nation’s past and look ahead to its future.

Reservations are required due to limited capacity, though there is no fee to attend. All are welcome—secure your spot, raise a glass, and celebrate 250 years together. Register for the event here.

After, please join us under the open sky at a special evening gathering on the Capitol lawn at 7:00 PM for a memorable night of music, community, and patriotic spirit.

Enjoy live performances by Jack Gladstone and the New Horizons Band as their music sets the tone for a relaxed and uplifting celebration, highlighted by a flyover. Bring a blanket or lawn chair, settle in, and take in the sounds of summer while honoring this historic milestone together.

This event is free and open to the public, and families are encouraged to attend. Come be part of an evening that celebrates our shared history, community, and the road ahead.
