Townsend Fall Festival Volunteers

Join us in celebrating Appalachian culture and tradition at the Townsend Fall Heritage and Bluegrass Festival! Volunteers help make this two-day event possible by assisting with festival setup, welcoming guests, supporting vendors, guiding performers, and keeping the grounds running smoothly. It’s a great way to enjoy live bluegrass music, regional arts and crafts, and delicious local food while giving back to the community.

If unable to attend, volunteers must notify the Volunteer Coordinator as soon as possible. Conduct Volunteers are expected to treat all festival guests, vendors, performers, and fellow volunteers with courtesy and respect. Alcohol, drugs, or disruptive behavior are strictly prohibited while volunteering. Duties Volunteers may be assigned to roles such as guest services, vendor support, admissions, parking, cleanup, or other areas as needed. Assignments may change based on festival needs. Safety Volunteers agree to follow all safety instructions and abide by festival policies. Closed-toe shoes are recommended. Certain positions may require lifting, standing, or working outdoors in varying weather conditions. Liability By volunteering, individuals acknowledge participation at their own risk.
