Dave Matthews to Headline Wildlands Music Event in Big Sky, Montana, with Lukas Nelson on August 2
BIG SKY, Mont., Jan. 14, 2025 / — Rock and Roll Hall of Famer Dave Matthews is set to headline Outlaw Partners’ fifth annual Wildlands music festival this summer in Big Sky, Montana. Matthews, performing in Montana for the first time in over three decades, will be joined by the acclaimed Lukas Nelson for an unforgettable evening of music at the Big Sky Events Arena. The venue, nestled in the stunning scenery of Lone Mountain, promises an exceptional backdrop for this rare concert experience.
The Wildlands event supports the preservation of wild landscapes, with a portion of proceeds benefitting American Rivers, a leading national river conservation organization, and the Bozeman-based Center for Large Landscape Conservation, which advocates for global ecological connectivity.
Tickets for the highly anticipated show will be available starting January 14 at 10 AM MST through wildlandsmusic.com. A limited pre-sale for locals and Warehouse Fan Club members will run from January 8-12. With only 4,000 tickets available for the event, which will feature surprise artist collaborations, tickets are expected to sell out quickly. Attendees are encouraged to secure their tickets early. An additional opening act will be announced in the coming months.
“Bringing Dave Matthews to Wildlands is a dream come true,” said Josh Timon, COO of Outlaw Partners. “His music captures the essence of community and a deep love for nature—values that align perfectly with the mission of Wildlands. Fans old and new won’t want to miss this night.”
Dave Matthews, known for his dynamic rock performances, has been a global music sensation since the early ’90s. His commitment to environmental conservation is just as well-known as his musical career, making him the perfect headliner for the Wildlands event.
In addition to the concert, Wildlands 2025 will feature a series of charity-driven community events, inspiring talks, documentary screenings, and a fundraising dinner on August 1. The two-day celebration, focused on music, conservation, and community, will be a must-attend event for Dave Matthews fans and those passionate about preserving public lands and rivers.
“Now in its fifth year, Wildlands has become a must-see festival that combines amazing music with a breathtaking location, all while supporting important environmental causes,” added Timon. “With this year’s stellar lineup and new activities, it’s shaping up to be our best event yet.”
