2 Best Nightlife in Kalispell, Missoula, and Northwest Montana, Montana

Blue Moon Nite Club, Casino & Grill

Whether the owner's band is playing on the stage or cowboys are serenading a sparse crowd of locals during karaoke, this place is a hoot. The wooden dance floor gets a good scuffing on Western dance and country-swing nights. Two stuffed grizzly bears rear up near the entrance, and other species decorate the large saloon as well.

The Top Hat

Missoula's most intimate live-music venue was remodeled to add a world-class sound system and a great restaurant to its popular bar. There are shows by popular performers almost every evening and programs for kids in late afternoon on the weekends.
