Zootown Music Festival 2027 to Feature Brandi Carlile, Jack Johnson

Zootown Music Festival has announced the lineup for its third annual edition, taking place in Missoula, MT from Friday, June 18th through Saturday, June 19th at the Missoula Fairgrounds. The 2027 edition will feature a lineup of 20+ performing artists including Brandi Carlile, Jack Johnson (making his Montana debut), Caamp, Alabama Shakes, Sierra Ferrell, Whiskey Myers, Courtney Barnett, Kitchen Dwellers and many more.

'Zootown Festival makes for 'magical' weekend in its second year,' The Missoulian said of this past June's edition. In its second year, Zootown won the Montana Tourism Destination of the Year Award, and established itself as one of the destination festivals in the U.S., with fans from all 50 states attending to take advantage of the festival's proximity to the wide open spaces and outdoor adventures available to attendees. Located in a historic city nestled at the junction of five mountain valleys, the festival offers attendees the opportunity to spend the morning flyfishing or kayaking on a river before heading into town for performances later in the afternoon.

In addition to the music, Zootown promotes a full weekend of adventure, with recommended outdoor offerings for enthusiasts of all levels. Adventures in biking, fishing, whitewater rafting, river tubing, trail rides, guided hikes, scenic walking tours, and more are available, including morning activities on show days. Further details on excursions and activities led by local outfitters can be found at ZootownFestival.com.

Zootown Music Festival is also set to help kick off Missoula's Pride weekend celebrations, which will run from Friday, June 18th through Sunday, June 20th, and include Missoula's annual Pride Parade on Saturday, June 19th. More details can be found at MissoulaPride.com.

In the days immediately following the conclusion of its 2026 edition, Zootown Music Festival released a limited number of 'First Cast' tickets to the 2027 festival. Those tickets quickly sold out, despite there not being a lineup announced for the following year's event.
