Zootown takes over the Missoula County Fairgrounds this weekend. The second annual show is back with another stellar lineup for us.

We get to see The Chicks, The Lumineers, Trampled by Turtles, Rainbow Kitten Surprise, The Head and the Heart, Tedeschi Trucks Band, and much more.

We put together a "need to know" packet ahead of this weekend's festival.

What You Need to Know About Zootown

Parking

There is paid parking, but it is limited. You can NOT park in the surrounding neighborhoods, so your best bet is to grab an Uber, Lyft, or taxi.

Shuttle Info

Or you can take the shuttle. Shuttles will run to the festival from the UM park & ride and the Elks Lodge downtown to Sentinel High School from 12:30 pm to 6:30 pm.

Catch the return shuttle from 8:30 to 11 pm.

Chair Rentals

You have to rent a chair from the festival if you want one. Unfortunately, they don't let you bring one in.

They offer a classic lawn chair for $15 and a premium chair for $20.

Locker Rentals

You can rent a locker on the fairgrounds to leave your valuables secure. Plus, if you're taking too many photos, voila, there's a phone charger in the locker to bring your phone back to life.

Reserve a locker today.
