Symphony Under the Stars: Broadway

We attended the Symphony Under the Stars again tonight. We have loved it in the past. See 2015 & 2014.


This year, it seemed like the kids were more interested in friends and rolling down the hill than the music but we all had a great time. The theme was Broadway Music. The night was amazing!!!!

Frank Sinatra's Symphony Under the Stars

The Helena Symphony and Carroll College Monday announces their continued collaboration for the 12th annual Symphony Under the Stars concert event and fireworks show on Saturday, July 18 at 8:30 p.m. on the campus of Carroll College. Considered the largest summer event in Montana, the much anticipated Symphony Under the Stars attracts well over 15,000 people from all over the state of Montana and beyond.

The 12th annual Symphony Under the Stars will be celebrating the 100th birthday of Frank Sinatra. CENTENNIAL SINATRA starring Steve Lippia is a celebration of the life and music of the twentieth century’s most remarkable singer of the Great American Songbook - a star of radio, television, movies and countless live performances throughout the world.


At the last minute we realized that tonight was the Symphony Under the Stars. After we made a stop at our friend's Wedding Reception, we headed over to our favorite spot to watch the show. Liberty and Glory got to hang out with her friends that were there as well. It was pretty funny because we didn't realize that we got there at intermission. Oops! But it was still pretty amazing! And we love the fireworks at the end!!!
