Music lovers are stoked!

March is less than a week away and that means Treefort is that much closer.

The popular music festival goes down March 20-24 in Downtown Boise, and features hundreds of bands, including Boise’s own Built to Spill.

If music really isn’t your jam, not a problem.

There are like nine other “forts” to check out, ranging from the family-friendly Kidfort to the tasty Alefort — the cider, beer and food tasting component of Treefort.

Wanna earn some serious points with your kids?

Take ‘em to watch big trucks compete at Monster Jam (March 8-9) and/or walk with the dinosaurs at Jurassic Quest (March 29-31).

And let’s not forget, St. Patty’s Day is this month, which means Downtown Boise will be bustling with green beers, Irish grub and bagpipes.

Cheers to a great month!
