The Missoula GOP is proud to host the 2026 Montana Republican Party Platform Convention — coming to Missoula this June.

The Platform Convention is where Republicans from across Montana gather to finalize the Party Platform, a 15-plank document covering the core principles and policies that Republican officeholders at every level will be expected to champion. The Platform adopted at this event will be in effect through the 2028 cycle.

We are excited to announce that U.S. Senator Tom Cotton will headline the Friday night dinner as keynote speaker. The convention will also feature Mark and Patricia McCloskey, the St. Louis couple who became nationally known after defending their home during the 2020 riots and later emerged as advocates for constitutional rights and law and order.

Early-bird tickets are $150 — pricing increases after the early-bird window closes.
