Volunteer

Volunteers and Staff play a special part at Electric Pines. We are thankful for the people who give their time and support to the festival with their passion for the community. You will make memories that will be shared for a long time with those you work alongside over the weekend. Most importantly, you will have the opportunity to participate in Electric Pines Music Festival family and help to organize a world-class music festival in your community.

Benefits of Being a volunteer

Volunteer positions ask for a time commitment of 10 hours before the festival, during the festival, or after for cleanup and take down. These can be done all at once or split into 2 five hour shifts. Some positions may vary slightly and will be discussed in more detail with those selected for those roles. There will be a crew coordinator for departments this year to help manage each team effectively.
