Volunteers

Think back to your favorite memory of a past Ithaca Festival. Whether it was watching the parade, enjoying tasty fry bread at Stewart Park or listening to your favorite band, it probably involved the work of an Ithaca Festival volunteer to make it happen. In fact, without the help of fantastic community members like you, the entire Ithaca Festival would not be possible. We are a free and open to the public festival that is run on Volunteer Power, and that’s what makes us so great; a festival by the community for the community!

There are lots of things to do – Tech Crew, Merchandise Sales,  CRT Crew, Stage Emcee, Office Help, Parade Patrol and Kid’s Activities - there will definitely be something to fit your interest. You also don't have to volunteer by yourself! Volunteer with your family, community group, team; working at the festival can be a great way to raise awareness for your particular group.

If you want to help all you have to do is complete a simple online application. Questions? Call 273-3646 or email This e-mail address is being protected from spambots.
