The National Folk Festival comes to Montana this summer, bringing the event’s mix of "music, dance and tradition from across America" to historic Butte in Big Sky country.

The dates for this year’s festival are July 11-13. The 24 acts, which will perform on seven stages, will include Washington’s Wylie & the Wild West, a Western music group featuring Yahoo! yodeler Wylie Gustafson; Nathan and the Zydeco Cha Chas from Louisiana; the Alex Meisner polka band from Pennsylvania; and New York’s Yuri Yunakof Ensemble, performing Bulgarian wedding music.
