Volunteer Information
Which volunteer opportunity are you interested in (select all that apply)?
Tour Guide (must be 18+)
-
As a Folklorama Volunteer Tour Guide, you will host bus tours from around Winnipeg, rural Manitoba, and across North America as they travel to their evening Pavilions. Showcase your province to out-of-town visitors and enjoy the Festival experience VIP Style!
VIP Tour Registration Volunteer
-
VIP Tour Registration Volunteers will work alongside a Folklorama staff member and are the guests first point of contact for their VIP tour. You will ensure the guests are aware of their bus number and boarding time. Registration Volunteers will be in contact with other Folklorama Registration Volunteers to coordinate arrival and departure times at the other pick-up locations on the evening of their shift. Shifts are quite short
and are a great introduction for someone who may want to one day be a Folklorama Tour Guide.

Pavilion Volunteers assist in a variety of roles at Pavilions during Festival, including admissions, parking lot attendants, food/bar service, and more! Volunteers may work with more than one Pavilion over the two weeks of Festival, depending on their schedule (Note: Pavilion Week Allocations are made available to the public in the spring).
Folklorama Kick-Off/Special Events Volunteer

Outside of our flagship Festival, Folklorama works year-round to organize a number of special events, including the Folklorama Kick-Off. Additional volunteer support is required for these events to ensure their success.
