Festival International de Louisiane is officially looking for smiling faces to volunteer in a variety of positions during this year’s Festival, April 25-29, 2018. Festival International is known for the supporters and volunteers that keep it fun and free year after year.
“Volunteering is easy, fun and is a great way to be part of Festival”, says Scott Feehan, Executive Director of Festival International. “It takes over 2,500 volunteer slots to put this event on and we need every single one of them. If you love this Festival as much as we do, please join the Festival family and volunteer this year. Most slots are only a few hours and you also get a free Festival shirt!”
Festival International invites everyone to become a part of the Festival experience. “Imagine yourself working a shift with music from all over the world floating around you. There are smiling faces of all ages, from all places, and they are enjoying this free festival because of YOU. Countless volunteers come back every single year because of this feeling”, says Marketing Coordinator, Carly Viator.
Registration is now open through the online Volunteer Center at www.festivalinternational.org/volunteer. Users can view all of the volunteer opportunities and register for the area and shift times of choice. The online system will allow individuals and groups to register and select the time and job of their choice. Bring your friends and family!
Volunteers are vital to the longevity and success of Festival. Service Chevrolet Cadillac, the official sponsor of the Volunteer Center and volunteer t-shirts, has made this experience something you do not want to miss out on.
