Volunteering is an opportunity to immerse yourself in a community driven by passion, creativity, and camaraderie. From setting up stages to assisting performers, managing crowds to ensuring everyone stays safe, festival volunteers are our BOSfest unsung heroes.

Beyond the sense of community, festival volunteering offers invaluable personal growth and enrichment.
