The Whitefish Trail Hootenanny Announces 2026 Bands

This year's WT Hootenanny is Friday, August 21 in Depot Park, and we are thrilled to announce local band favorites New Wave Time Trippers and HotDäyum for this year's event! Hotdäyum is a seven-piece sonic powerhouse with an electrifying mix of groove, melody, and improvisation. Based in Whitefish, Montana, they deliver a high-energy, genre-defying experience that keeps audiences on their toes and the dance floor moving. The New Wave Time Trippers of 1985 create a totally tubular 80's dance party with both a visual and music show from the decade of decadence!

Live music is made possible by Music Sponsors Great Northern Bar and 101 Central. Get your discounted tickets today and dig out your dancing shoes! Thank you to our Title Sponsor, First Interstate Bank!
