Interested in becoming an NTIF volunteer?

Why Volunteer?

First and foremost - we have a lot of fun! For each 3-hour shift worked you will receive a free beverage of your choice at the Festival. One 3-hour shift gets you free admission into the Festival on the day of your shift. Two or more 3-hour shifts get you free admission into the Festival on both days. Volunteers working two or more shifts receive a free NTIF souvenir T-shirt.

What kinds of things to volunteers do at the NTIF?

Admissions - The all-important ticket sales. Lots of folks needed here.

Beer - Volunteers are needed to pour beer. You need to be TABC certified for this (we pay for the training). Also, you need to be 21 or over.

Finance - We always need people to help count money.

Hospitality - Maintain the performers' hospitality/dressing area.

Main Office - Mostly this involves answering the phone during the Festival.

Performers' Products Sales - We set up a booth where our performers' products are for sale - tapes, CDs, shirts, etc.

SCMA Information Booth The SCMA promotes Celtic cultural events in North Texas, including the NTIF. Help support the SCMA and spend a few hours at their booth giving out information and selling their product.

Souvenir T-shirt Sales - This is usually a combination T-shirt and program sales and a general information booth.

Stage Managers - Announce the acts, take care of wants and needs of the performers, get them on and off the stage on time.

Transportation - Drivers are needed for our courtesy vans which take performers to and from the airport, hotel, and Festival grounds. Must be a licensed driver over 25 with no tickets and for this.

Urchin Street - This area is devoted to children. Helpers are needed for arts and crafts for the kids.
