Red Ants Pants Festival

Event Details

Named the Montana Event of the Year by the Montana Office of Tourism, this one of a kind four-day event is located just three miles outside of White Sulphur Springs on the Jackson Ranch. Featuring primarily country and rock leaning genres, the Red Ants Pants Music Festival is sure to provide a memorable and enjoyable experience to visitors and locals alike. Attend for a single day, or the whole weekend!

Throughout the event, a free shuttle will run about every 20 minutes from White Sulphur Springs to the venue, creating a hassle-free environment where you are free to kick back and relax. For those wanting to stay on site for the weekend, there is a campground that will accommodate all types of camping from tents to RVs.

Over the years, attendees have enjoyed headliners including Merle Haggard, Emmylou Harris, Charley Pride, Nitty Gritty Dirt Band, Keb' Mo', Lucinda Williams, and Dwight Yoakam.

Yes, a little Made in the USA pants company started a music festival. Not the usual path for small business, but why not? Founded in 2011 by Sarah Calhoun, Red Ants Pants has become one of the most anticipated Montana events of the summer. It is designed to bring people together and is a program of the 501(c)(3) Red Ants Pants Foundation. Our non-profit is dedicated to women’s leadership, working family farms and ranches, and rural communities. We use proceeds from the festival to fund our community grants and run our timber skills work shops and Girl’s Leadership Program.
