About the application

The Festival is a success because of our volunteers. Here’s how you and your group can be a part of this great experience! Gate Volunteers are the welcoming faces of the festival, greeting guests and helping create a positive first impression. Responsibilities include scanning advance tickets, checking sponsor credentials, providing children with safety wristbands with a caregiver’s phone number, and helping ensure festival guidelines are followed, including no pets, outside coolers, or outside beverages. Volunteers play an important role in keeping entry organized while helping guests feel welcomed and informed. All Volunteers will receive a FREE Limited Edition “Volunteer” T-Shirt featuring this year’s festival logo on a unique T-Shirt color that is Not Available for Sale. Volunteers also receive FREE admission and lunch each day that they are scheduled to work a shift, along with a complimentary festival admission ticket.
