With the Montana Folk Festival expected to bring tens of thousands of people to Butte, the sound of cash registers ringing up will be music to the ears of many businesses.

“Two years ago, you made me cry and you’re not going to be able to do that this year. It’s coming back,” said festival organizer George Everett.

The free, three-day music festival had been going strong in Butte since 2008 before it was sidelined by COVID-19.
