e summer and early fall
months are busy. In July, the
Great Northern Fair brings visi-
tors to the city in droves and of-
fers many entertainments, such
as the standard carnival and
rides, musical acts, and rodeo.
After the fair, the next big
event arrives generally in August
— the Rocky Boy Powwow.
e nearby reservation that
belongs to the Chippewa Cree
Tribe attracts hundreds of dancers from all over the continent and
the surrounding areas. e full powwow lasts for three days and
participants use the time to dance in intoxicating and vivid displays
of color and music before a backdrop of the sacred Bear Paw
Mountains.
A more detailed schedule of
the festivals and celebrations
can be found at the Havre Area
Chamber of Commerce's Web
site and is a good tool to use
when deciding when to stop in
Havre.
NIGHTLIFE
After a full day of sight-
seeing and partaking in the arts
and culture of Havre, the city's
streetlights illuminate another kind of activity. When night falls,
many move indoors to partake in the bustling nightlife of Havre.
Driving into town from the west, one passes Triple Dog Brewery
— Havre's claim to fame in the craft beer world of Montana. e
brewery offers a friendly atmosphere and interesting selection of
unique brews.
Havre has enough tourist attractions to keep a
Beaver Creek cattle drive
