Why Volunteer?
Swag
We love our volunteers and appreciate all they do! Volunteer swag is available at every event, festival, and when volunteers are contacted for special tasks. At a festival or event, your swag is available to you as soon as you arrive or after your volunteer shift, whichever you prefer. Swag varies by event and volunteer role.
All volunteers will receive free admission ($10 value), two (2) beverage tickets, and a $10 Twin Oast Gift Card!
​
Volunteering for multiple shifts?
You'll get an additional $25 Gift Card and 1 Beverage token for every additional shift you volunteer!
​
Founders -- we will have a special Founder's volunteer thank you gift waiting for you at Entry!
Perks
Skip the line! Regardless of when your volunteer shift starts, our volunteers go directly into the event. We will have your entry wristband and any other volunteer swag you are earning that day ready for you when you arrive. So even if you aren’t volunteering until the evening or even the day after for clean-up, you may enter the event or festival without waiting in the entry line.
Got a blanket or chairs? A small bag? We have you covered! While you are working your volunteer shift you may leave your valuables at our Volunteer Table. The table will be (wo)manned all day, so there's no need to cart things back & forth to your vehicle.
We'll also provide free cold bottled water, sunscreen, and bug spray to all volunteers during the entire event.
Experience the behind-the-scenes magic
Volunteering is a great opportunity to see and be part of the inner workings of Twin Oast Brewing. Behind the magic, there are usually lots of busy bees running around making the event run smoothly and safely. It can give you a real insight into how everything works and give you a different outlook on the overall brewery or event experience.We'll also provide free cold bottled water, sunscreen, and bug spray to all volunteers during the entire event.
Meet new people and make new friends
It's great to volunteer and spend part of your event or festival experience with people whom you share a common interest with. There are no mates like workmates, and volunteering can often give you the opportunity of meeting new people from all walks of life. If you're coming to the event/festival on your own, this is a great way of having a team of people around you and not feel alone.
