Well over two-hundred volunteers contribute annually to keep the Tucson Folk Festival running smoothly. The Tucson Folk Festival can only happen each year with volunteer support. It’s such fun to be a part of this event and we love our volunteers!
As a volunteer, you help TKMA present Arizona’s largest free to the public music festival, a beloved annual event on the Tucson calendar since 1986. All festival volunteers will receive an official Tucson Folk Festival Volunteer T-Shirt at check in, as well as their choice of a free raffle ticket or a free beverage ticket to redeem after your shift!

We also are actively in need of volunteers throughout the year for our various fundraisers, concerts, and membership events. If you would like to be a Festival or TKMA volunteer, please sign up at the links below.
And thank you! We can’t make this happen without our volunteers! Our incredible volunteers truly enable the Tucson Folk Festival to remain FREE to the public since 1986!

We also have year-round volunteer opportunities at our fundraisers and community events. Sign up for our email list below to be notified of volunteer opportunities!

Guidelines for Tucson Folk Festival and TKMA Volunteers
Thank you for volunteering for a TKMA event!

We might be greeting people, promoting the Folk Festival, and/or handling money during our work shifts. We want your volunteer commitment with TKMA to be a fun and enjoyable experience, yet it is very important that these volunteer positions are accomplished with an attention to detail and a professional demeanor.
Listed below are TKMA Volunteer Guidelines:
- Please leave your pets at home while working in a TKMA volunteer position.
- Please refrain from consumption of alcoholic beverages during your shift.
- Please keep TKMA tables and areas clean and neat and free of personal items, especially food and drinks.
