11:00am Parade in downtown Billings then moving to the DoubleTree 3rd floor for more celebrations.

The parade showcased floats from various nations across Montana, with inclusion from the Northern Cheyenne Nation. Our representation came through Morning Star Propane, Miss Northern Cheyenne, and Miss Jr. Northern Cheyenne, adding a touch of our community's spirit to the event.

Live streams of the event can be found on the Northern Cheyenne Tribal Council Facebook page.

Following the Parade, the festivities transitioned to the DoubleTree Hotel located on the third floor of the building. Attendees had communal lunch, explored numerous vendors representing diverse nations, and immersed themselves in a captivating showcase of dance. The performance featured Miss Northern Cheyenne and Miss Jr. Northern Cheyenne princesses, who exhibited the rich essence of the Northern Cheyenne nation through fancy shaw and jingle.
