Want Free Parking on the Septemberfest Grounds? Sign Up To Be A Volunteer...

Septemberfest Volunteer Registration is online and available for you to select your volunteer locations. Morning, afternoon and evening shifts are available. All volunteers receive a complimentary T-shirt and a Septemberfest parking pass for the day they volunteer their time.

We have multiple locations on the festival grounds that are available for volunteering and volunteers may select multiple shifts in multiple locations. Please note all volunteers must be at least 18 years of age.

Please check back to register for Septemberfest 2025 starting in mid-April!
