Splash is the #1 destination for getting wet and wild under the Big Sky. Here's to hoping that the weather is decent enough to enjoy some fun in the sun this summer. Open weekends from Noon-6pm until June 12th. Located at 3001 Bancroft in the center of Missoula.

3. Absolutely Dance Party at The Badlander

This event has been going strong every Saturday for the past couple of seasons and it's sure to be the spot to see and be seen on the dance floor. Kris Moon is usually your resident DJ but as he enjoys this Memorial Day weekend off with the family you'll be entertained by the truly unique sounds of Monty Carlo and other special guest DJ's.

4. Carousel Arts and Crafts Festival
