Get ready for the Great Bear Festival

| August 4, 2022 12:00 AM

The fifth annual Rotary Great Bear Festival comes to Kalispell's Depot Park Saturday, Aug. 6, from 4 to 9:30 p.m.

Each year 2,000 people enjoy a beautiful day in Kalispell Depot Park sampling beers, hard ciders and wines produced in the area, accompanied by fine food and great live music.

The festival features more than 35 breweries, wineries and cider makers; a dozen food vendors; music by Chain Reaction and the Kenny James Miller Band; and a special admission VIP tent with gourmet food from Desoto Grill and S&M Tacos.

The new Parkline Trail running right past Depot Park is open for locals and visitors to explore and enjoy Kalispell’s beautifully transformed downtown corridor.

Since 2017, the Rotary Great Bear Festival has raised and donated more than $200,000 to support the critical work of outstanding community nonprofits and to help fund lifesaving global service projects.

Tickets are available online at Eventbrite.com or at the gate.
