Volunteering?
« Thread Started on Feb 13, 2013, 10:12am »

Hi Y'all

I'm interested in volunteering for the Sasquatch festival and working in exchange for my admission. Does anyone know if this information is available for this year, and if so where I can find it?

Thanks

Probably easier to get hired for a job there. To volunteer you would need to qualify for an internship or the like through an educational program.

There were other words in that sentence besides 'educational program'. Words like 'qualify'. Volunteers are generally put to work in the medical tent. Forgive me for making assumptions, but you don't strike me as the kind of fellow who knows his way around a medical tent. Well, the administrative side of a medical tent, anyway.

Just because you didn't get tickets doesn't mean there's a magical list somewhere that will get you in for free.

Just curious, in terms of interning would your best guess be to go through LiveNation, Snacks or STG Presents? I only ask because there is nothing on the Sasquatch! Festival site I could find relating to it.

My guess is JiveNation because every person I have ever seen working there has had a blue or yellow shirt. They may in fact be volunteering, I don't know, but that is who runs the site.

Yeah, and I'm sure the safest bet would be cutting your teeth with STG beforehand for a quarter/semester. I just really respect quality promoters/bookers/show-runners.

As far as I remember, Sasquatch doesn't offer any volunteer for admission programs. live Nation may or may not have somethig.

I was only asking because other festivals such as Firefly and Hangout have this type of a program.

Many do, I have done it before. But this is an unofficial forum and we are just trying to be helpful. If you are seriously interested you should contact JiveNation and ask.
