Hello, Power Pioneers!

From May 26 – June 1, 2025, the Vancouver International Children’s Festival presents the world’s finest music, theatre, dance, acrobatics and storytelling, as well as creative arts activities for the entire family. Over 25,000 attendees are welcomed to Granville Island each year with the help of volunteers, and Power Pioneers have been invited to help with the event.

There’s something for every volunteer – shifts for children’s arts and crafts, site decor, wayfaring, hospitality, ushering, school tours, assistant coordinators, ticket sales, and administrative assistance.

Volunteers are provided with refreshments, standby performance tickets and onsite children’s activity tickets (great to give to children and youth). Volunteers are also eligible for a prize draw, t-shirt, and reference letters depending on hours worked.

Volunteers are asked to work a minimum of two shifts, and also to attend one volunteer orientation the weekend before the festival. The opportunities are flexible, depending on your capacity.

If you’d like to inquire about group volunteering, volunteer role accessibility, application assistance, or more, please feel free to contact the coordinator at volunteer@childrensfestival.ca, or 604-708-5655 Ext 105.
