BE APART OF THE FAIR

Now Accepting Activity Table Applications for the 2026 Western Montana Fair!

Local nonprofit organizations are invited to apply for the Free Activity Table opportunity at the Western Montana Fair. This space allows organizations to provide a free, interactive, or educational activity for fairgoers while sharing information about their mission with the community.

This opportunity is intended for nonprofits that may not have the funding or staffing capacity to participate as a full commercial vendor.

Hours for the activity table are 12:00–6:00 PM daily, and organizations may participate for 1–3 days during the Fair.

Submitting an application does not guarantee a spot. Applications will be reviewed, and selected organizations will be contacted by a representative from the Missoula County Fairgrounds.

Apply by April 20th, 2026!
