MORE INFORMATION

Before planning an event at the fairgrounds, please call the Fair Office to schedule your event. Many events can be approved by the fair manager, but unusual or major events may need to be placed on the official agenda for the next Fair Board meeting for approval.  

PLEASE DO NOT PROMOTE OR ADVERTISE YOUR EVENT UNTIL YOU HAVE RECEIVED APPROVAL FOR THE EVENT.

If there are any special needs or unusual circumstances for your event, we recommend that you come to a board meeting to discuss the event with the board. Call the Fair Office at 406-346-2144 to obtain the date and time of the next meeting. (If no answer, leave a message; your call will be returned.)

The Fair reserves the right to ACCEPT OR DENY rental requests, and to determine fees or waivers of fees, on a case-by-case basis.  (Not all events are automatically approved; for example, an event which could cause excessive damage to the facilities may be denied.) 

  • RENTAL FEES AND DEPOSITS: All rental fees and deposits must be paid, and appropriate documentation must be received, at least SEVEN DAYS before the event begins unless otherwise authorized by the Fair personnel.  Cleaning and damage deposit payments are REQUIRED and will be held (not cashed or deposited) by the fair office. When the event is over and Fair property has been inspected by Fair personnel, deposits will be returned if the property is clean and undamaged.

  • RESTROOMS will be clean and stocked prior to the event. It is the responsibility of the renter to clean restrooms and dump all garbage after the event is concluded.

  • PROOF OF LIABILITY INSURANCE naming Rosebud-Treasure County Fair as an additional insured is required for all events using the fairgrounds. Depending on the type of event, other types of insurance may be required. Proof of insurance must come from the INSURANCE AGENT, not the renter -- no exceptions.  A hold-harmless document must be read, signed and attached to all rental agreements. 


FAIRGROUNDS POLICIES:

  • No under-age driving permitted on the fairgrounds

  • THERE IS NO DRIVING OR PARKING ON THE CARNIVAL GRASS OR SMALL PAVILION GRASS AT ANY TIME.
