Walker Montgomery

Rising country star Walker Montgomery returns to the Ottawa Memorial Auditorium — this time with his full band for an unforgettable night of country music!

Chosen as an "Artist to Watch" by Country Now, Music Mayhem Magazine, Sounds Like Nashville, and The Boot, Walker is quickly making a name for himself in today’s country scene. The son of John Michael Montgomery and nephew of Montgomery Gentry’s Eddie Montgomery, Walker is carving out his own legacy with hits like “She Don’t Know,” “Simple Town,” and “Bad Day to Be a Beer.” His signature honey-bourbon voice and heartfelt songwriting have earned him over 40 million streams and a growing national fanbase.

Walker made his Grand Ole Opry debut in 2023 and first visited the OMA as an acoustic opener — now he’s back and headlining with a full-throttle show you won’t want to miss!

The Ottawa Rotary Club Presents: Fighting Fentanyl...Know is the new NO!

The Ottawa Rotary Club invites you to be a part of this free community presentation of "Fighting Fentanyl...Know is the new NO" on Monday, June 9, 2025.

The introduction of illegally manufactured fentanyl into the drug supply has changed everything. Counterfeit pills are everywhere, and drug cartels are targeting our youth with our own technology…smart phones and apps. It just takes a few clicks to find a fake pill and it can be delivered to your home just like ordering a pizza. The only safe pill is one that comes prescribed by a doctor and filled at a pharmacy. This is a topic that EVERY family needs to be talking about at the dinner table...often.
