Discover the Intimate KettleHouse Amphitheater

The KettleHouse Amphitheater is more than an amphitheater — it's a riverside escape that turns live music into a Montana memory. Set on the banks of the Blackfoot River just 8 miles east of Missoula, KettleHouse Amphitheater upcoming events draw fans to a scenic, open-air setting surrounded by mountain views. It’s a stunning backdrop for summer nights, touring headliners, and unforgettable encores.

Opened in 2017, the venue welcomes up to 4,250 guests for concerts, festivals, and seasonal lineups.

The amphitheater’s riverfront design adds natural ambiance to every set.

Artists like Sheryl Crow, The Avett Brothers, Jason Isbell, Ween, Brandi Carlile, Wilco, Primus, and Nathaniel Rateliff & The Night Sweats have all lit up the night here. Annual summer concert series keep the calendar lively and the community connected to the music scene.

What sets this amphitheater apart is its setting and craft culture. Built in partnership with the award-winning KettleHouse Brewery next door, the venue pairs Montana-made beer with river and mountain views. As daylight fades, the sunset over the Blackfoot River becomes part of the show.

With its intimate scale, outdoor design, and thoughtful amenities, the KettleHouse Amphitheater makes every performance feel close and personal. From first chords to final bows, it’s a place where you can savor the music — and the moment.

Arrival Recommendations

Aim to arrive 60–90 minutes before showtime. Early arrival helps you breeze through entry, choose a great lawn spot if you’re in general admission, and explore concessions without the rush. If a parking pass is required for your show, have it ready when you pull in.

KettleHouse Amphitheater is an outdoor venue, and Montana weather can be variable. Bring layers for cool evenings and pack rain gear if the forecast calls for it. The grounds may include gravel or grass, so wear comfortable footwear for the short walk from parking to the gates.

Cell service is generally good but can become spotty during larger crowds. Download your tickets and any parking passes in advance. If you’re coordinating with friends, decide on a meet-up spot — such as a merchandise stand or a landmark near your section — before the lights go down. For a smoother entry and faster seat selection, review the KettleHouse Amphitheater seating chart ahead of time and plan your route to your section.

Pre-Event Planning

Lean into the setting and make it an occasion. Arrive early to take in the river and mountain scenery, snap photos at golden hour, and settle in before the opening act. If you’re on the lawn, claim a centered spot early for the best balance of sound and sightlines.

With the KettleHouse Brewery next door, craft beer is part of the experience. Many shows feature local food trucks and a variety of concessions, so you can enjoy a pre-show bite without leaving the grounds. Coordinating with a group? Share the KettleHouse Amphitheater seating chart beforehand and pick a designated meet-up point near your section or a merchandise stand.

If you’re traveling from Missoula, keep an eye out for any event-specific shuttles and factor in time for potential traffic as showtime approaches. On-site parking is available, but it fills quickly — arriving 60–90 minutes early keeps your evening relaxed and hassle-free.
