Symphony Under the Stars
7/18 at 8:00 PM
Carroll Campus Guadalupe Lawn

Join the Helena Symphony and Carroll College in their continued collaboration for the Intrepid Credit Union Symphony Under the Stars concert event and fireworks show on Saturday, July 18, 2026, at 8:00 p.m. on the campus of Carroll College. Considered the largest summer event in Montana, the much-anticipated Symphony Under the Stars attracts close to 18,000 people from all over the state of Montana and beyond.

Celebration! will be exactly what it sounds like. An evening of celebration! A celebration of America’s 250th birthday. A celebration of the newest president of Carroll College. A celebration of Helena’s newest mayor. Plus a myriad of other occasions to celebrate! And no celebration is complete without some party music. The music of Lionel Ritchie, James Brown, Earth Wind & Fire, Neil Diamond, and Kool & the Gang will have you up and dancing from the beginning! The Helena Symphony will be working with the same producer from some favorite past shows, and welcome the return of Capathia Jenkins and Ryan Shaw, who both starred in the Aretha tribute in 2019 and ICONS in 2025.

What to bring:

A blanket to sit on and one to stay warm with
Some cold drinks (lots of water!)
Canned or non-perishable goods to donate to Helena Food Share
Cash - Vendors will be on hand at the event
Specific details regarding seating, parking, and other production information can be found on the Symphony Under the Stars page. Those interested in sponsorship opportunities, or with general questions can contact the Helena Symphony office at 406.442.1860.
