YES! There WILL be food vendors on site: CC Gourmet, Follow Yer Nose BBQ, Mo’ Bowls, Ms. Sippi’s Southern Cuisine, and Struggle Chef Catering for tasty local bites. (Most vendors accept cash or cards. PRO TIP: Bring lots of $5s and $10s just in case there's an issue with someone's mobile card reader...you can still get food.)

The Montana Brewers Association Spring Rendezvous is special because only Montana-made craft beers will be featured. It's not national. It's not even regional. Strictly Montana beers for a Montana crowd at the Gallatin County Fairgrounds. (You'd be amazed at just how many brewers there are across Montana. Many of them were completely new to us!)

Just remember to get your tickets in advance for the Spring Rendezvous. It's possible for VIP tickets to sell out, AND you'll simply pay more at the door if you wait until the day of the event. And that's silly. The event is popular, you've been warned. (Yes, there will be a Summer Rendezvous, but that is held in Helena.)
