Volunteer at the Irish Fair of MN

Who can volunteer with the Irish Fair?

The Irish Fair is committed to creating an environment of inclusivity and diversity. We welcome volunteers of all ages, backgrounds, and abilities. (We do prefer volunteers 16 and older due to the nature of some of the work but will work with families to see if there are good options for children younger than 16.)

PERKS OF BEING A VOLUNTEER

Besides the warm fuzzy feeling of giving back to your community, being a volunteer with the Irish Fair of MN has its perks, which include:

free snazzy t-shirt
free non-alcoholic beverages and snacks
free weekend admission to the fair
free parking on the day(s) you volunteer
free beverage ticket that can be used for an alcoholic (or non-alcoholic) beverage (1 ticket per shift)
volunteer appreciation party after the fair

VOLUNTEER POSITION DESCRIPTIONS

There are many types of opportunities available. We can help you find one that is best suited to your interests and abilities. Click on each position to read more about the position and to register for it.

Note: We request that all volunteers attend one session of Alcohol Awareness Training, regardless of their position, to ensure everyone knows the Fair's policy for handling guests who have had a little too much to drink. This training is MANDATORY for positions that serve alcohol or check IDs, identified in the position descriptions. Please plan on attending one session in person. Dates and times of training sessions for 2025 will be announced soon.
*If you are volunteering in a position that does not require this training and attending the training is burdensome for you, don't feel obligated to attend.
