Volunteer Eligibility

To be an Ignite Volunteer you must have some previous Ignite experience as a volunteer or participant, or experience with space holding and facilitation.

Cost

We ask all volunteers to purchase a festival pass for $100, and you can request to have this cost returned to you at the end of the festival — just select this option when prompted at the checkout.

Volunteer Roles and Responsibilities

As a volunteer, you'll play a crucial role in creating the magic of the festival and helping everything to run smoothly. Some of our volunteer responsibilities include:

• Creating a welcoming atmosphere: support participants’ arrival at the festival on day one and help attendees feel welcome and safe throughout the festival.

• Practicing clear communication and great teamwork: provide helpful information to festival-goers and collaborate with our volunteer team members to ensure the festival's success.

• Assisting facilitators in sessions: step into the role of facilitator’s assistant, including demos and helping to obtain supplies.

• Volunteer meet-up: attend the in-person volunteer meet-up on Wednesday, July 8th, from 5:30-7:00 pm. Snacks and drinks are provided.

• Daily check-in: participate in daily volunteer check-ins to discuss any questions and support each other. These will happen for 15 minutes prior to the opening ceremony each day of the festival.

• Visible support: be a visible presence for attendees to connect with about any questions or needs.

• Set up and tear down: be available for pre-festival setup and post-festival tear down to help prepare and close out the event.
