Dave Matthews will team up with Lukas Nelson to headline Montana’s Wildlands Music Festival, returning to Big Sky, MT on August 2nd, 2025.
Founded in 2018, Wildlands returns for its sixth year and will shift to a single-day format for 2025, with Matthews and Nelson set to deliver “a once in a lifetime show” at Big Sky Events Arena. The show will mark Matthews’ first show in Montana in over 30 years, according to the announcement. Nelson posted on social media: “Excited to join @davematthewsbnd at #WildlandsMusic this year! See you on August 2nd!”
Each year, the festival designates nonprofit beneficiaries that share the festival’s mission of protecting and preserving the environment. This year’s beneficiaries are American Rivers, a national leader in river conservation for over 50 years, and the Bozeman-based Center for Large Landscape Conservation. The festival also indicated plans to “feature a day of charity-driven community events and a fundraiser dinner for our nonprofit beneficiaries on Friday, August 1 with more details coming soon.”
