Aptly described as "Montana's Biggest Weekend", the Dillon Jaycee Labor Day Rodeo, Concert, and Parade provides an exciting and colorful end to summer. The arena action lures America's top riders and ropers, matched against the toughest rodeo stock in two days of heart-stopping action. The fairgrounds offer something for everyone!
Spend the days with visits to the 4-H and arts buildings to view the "winning" entries, from jellies and jams to quilts, and be sure not to miss the award-winning animals. Then stroll through the mid-way carnival to ride the Merry-Go-Round or for the brave - the infamous Zipper. Food and prize vendors abound along with souvenirs and everything you would expect from a spectacular summer fair. Concert goers will love the featured artist and opening act, but be sure to get your tickets early! Stay for the Labor Day Parade which has also gained an enviable reputation for its panoramic display of entries.
