Volunteer: Gate 6 - 2026

Our main job is to scan the tickets or badges of people entering Irishfest at Gate 6. These people can consist of other volunteers, VIP's, vendors, employees, entertainers, paying customers, Summerfest personnel, security and emergency personnel. We issue hand stamps to people who leave the fest but wish to come back later in the day. We are also in charge of the "volunteer will call" tickets that have been previously reserved for people.

We are Irishfest's first impression to many people, so a friendly and outgoing personality is a plus.
