Big Hole Pizza

In a town that has gained worldwide notoriety for its celebrations and parties, it is only fitting that summer be sent off in a style befitting of Montana's "Festival City". This Friday night is the "Fall Fling" taking place outside of the Elks Lodge on Galena Street adjacent to Headframe Spirits from 6pm until 10pm. And quite the party is planned.

The 2023 edition of "Rhythm and Brews" at the Original Mineyard was off to possibly its best start in event history. In fact, the party was in full swing, and kids and adults alike were having a great time. And then the storm hit. Saturday evening's freak lightning storm and torrential downpour put an abrupt end to the event just after 5pm. But other than the early end and soaked partygoers, the fundraiser for Big Brothers and Big Sisters of Butte was a big success. Here's a look at some of the fun that was had before the clouds opened.

Music on Main is entering its final 3 weeks but things are by no means slowing down. In fact, with the number of food trucks expected tonight along with one of Butte's favorite bands performing, you could say that they are indeed gearing up for a big finish.

If there was one complaint from people who attended the first Food Truck Festival last April outside of Collective Elevation on Galena Street, it was that the lines for food were too long. The food trucks and tents on site were being run ragged with orders from the larger-than-expected crowd. All day. Which, of course, was music to their ears. Well, it didn't take long for word to get out to other area vendors and that is why you are going to find a ridiculous number of food trucks, tents and carts for the Butte Food Truck Festival and Block Party which will again be taking place on East Galena Street centered at Collective Elevation at 34 E. Galena.

Uptown Butte's popular Lunch in the Park series is a go again for Summer 2023 and this year's entertainment and vendor lineup has been set. Lunch in the Park again will take place Wednesdays from 11:30am to 1:30pm at Emma Park with food, live music and activities for the kids from July 12 to August 23rd save for the August 2nd event with the Butte Symphony which will be a special "Dinner in the Park" event from 6 until 8pm.

By now you've seen the Big Hole Pizza fire truck around town and you've probably even had yourself a slice or two. Big Hole Pizza is becoming increasingly popular a big reason why is their delicious, cooked to perfection thin crust pizza that comes hot out of a real wood-fired oven.

Yesterday we put up 5 pizza joints here in Butte as some of the best in town. But according to many readers and listeners some of the best pizza in town can be found on the hill.
