Episode Synopsis

Good morning, this is your Bozeman Local Frequency for Sunday, October 19, 2025.If you were out and about yesterday, you might have caught wind of the tremendous energy swelling through downtown Bozeman. Nearly ten thousand people filled Main Street for the “No Kings” protest, a spirited demonstration against the Trump administration. Protesters of all ages—yes, even dinosaurs, at least in costume—brought music, costumes, and signs like “courage is contagious” and “anti-fascism is patriotism.” Despite the tide of passion, Bozeman kept it peaceful, with no arrests reported, just a handful of counter-protesters waving their flags and making their presence known. “This is what democracy looks like,” rang out along the sidewalks, painting a vivid picture of community engagement. The message was clear and unanimous: no kings, just spirited citizens determined to let their voices be heard.Today, the city calms a bit but still delivers plenty to do. For families and museum lovers, the Museum of the Rockies continues its National Fossil Day Celebration. Step back in time and discover just what giant creatures once roamed our valley and marvel at the treasures that the Rockies keep unearthing. If local art and handcrafted goods are more your style, swing by the Bozeman Fall MADE Fair at Brick Breeden Fieldhouse, where hundreds of regional artists are showcasing their creative wares. Foodies and hop-heads, take note—yesterday saw the eighth annual Montana Fresh Hop Festival at the Gallatin County Fairgrounds. If you missed out on the fresh brews, there’s still plenty of seasonal flavor at local breweries as they tap the last of this fall’s harvest[2][6][8].Music pulses through Bozeman all day. This afternoon you can immerse yourself in Celtic rhythms at Valhalla Meadery starting at three, and later, Live From the Divide offers an evening concert that promises an intimate showcase from up-and-coming songwriters. Jazz lovers can wind down the weekend at the Warren Miller Performing Arts Center with a five o’clock show. More concerts and open mic nights pop up at familiar hotspots like The Filling Station and Bozeman Hot Springs—so whatever your taste, let the notes carry you. Over at Montana State University, classical music fans can catch the junior cello recital by James Jordan, performed with prize-winning accompaniment at Reynolds Recital Hall starting at three[4][10][11].And for those who want to connect with community, local clubs and networking groups continue to meet, so check out the Bozeman Chamber of Commerce’s listings for details. Weather’s looking crisp but clear, classic autumn in Montana, so whether you take a walk down Main Street or join in the local festivities, there’s no shortage of ways to enjoy the day.This has been Bozeman Local Frequency.
