Music and Art Festivals

We know that volunteers are critical to the success of your festival, fair or parade. That's why we've integrated event-centric features into our platform to address the unique needs of customers like you across the world. Whether your volunteers are serving beer or painting faces, our system helps everyone claim the volunteer job and shift they want, while providing you the key tools you need to manage the masses and make your event a success.


With VolunteerLocal, you can relay critical information to volunteers in a timely manner using our broadcast communication tool. Send or schedule messages to your volunteers by job, shift or event-wide. Increase volunteer retention with free festival tickets to those who give four hours or more, and collect credit card deposits from volunteers in the amount of the ticket they'll earn at the completion of their shift.


For high priority jobs and shifts, use our tiered recruitment methodology to pick which jobs should be displayed on the live registration page first. Want to give early-bird access to last year's volunteers? No problem. Password protect one or multiple jobs for specialized groups to access privately.

Premier Event Management used Volunteer Local on a daily basis from March-October. Volunteer Local allowed us to coordinate over 4,000 volunteers throughout the 2013 season in the easiest way possible. We worked with volunteers throughout an 8 state region and it allowed us to easily communicate and keep track of volunteer numbers. Thank you for allowing us to coordinate and organize volunteers for some of the largest triathlons and road races in the country and also for keeping us sane!
