This Saturday, we’re celebrating strawberries!

It’s the Annual Strawberry Festival in Billings, so come out and try everything strawberry!  Held downtown under Skypoint, the event involves pancakes, art, food, music, and the biggest strawberry shortcake you’ve ever seen.  You definitely don’t want to miss it!

Food

All the local restaurants will be out with their best strawberry dishes.  From strawberry lemonade to strawberry napoleans, strawberry salsa to strawberry sandwich wrap, you’ll be able to taste just about every dish that can be made with the sweet berry.  The day starts with a pancake breakfast, so make sure you get there early, and wraps up with a 60 ft long strawberry shortcake!

Entertainment and Shopping

While the food is the highlight of the event, it’s not the only thing going on.  There will also be bands playing live music throughout the day, and shopping.  Local artisans will have booths throughout downtown Billings, selling jewelry, art, pet products and much, much more.  There’s even a kids’ area set up for children to engage in crafts and take fun pictures.  Keep an eye out for the giant strawberry who will be roaming the streets!

Enjoy the Strawberry Festival, and while you’re here, check out some of the other things Billings has to offer!
