We want your experience as a volunteer to be enjoyable. Our festival has a little bit of everything and as a volunteer you'll have the opportunity to do something different or enhance the skills you already have.


Any one over the age of 13 can volunteer. You must be aware that this is a 'Pet Friendly' event and there are always risks relating to being in large crowds with animals. Woofa~Roo's goal is to provide a friendly, happy atmosphere for people coming together with a common bond: their love of animals. If this appeals to you, you are perfect for us! Students can work on their 40 hour community service requirements. Please indicate on our application form if this is your intention. Students under 18 must have a parent or guardian's permission to volunteer. Please read our Volunteer Terms & Conditions.


You must attend 1 of our 3 orientations on Friday June 21st for a festival tour, training and T-Shirt & hat distribution. Please see below for the scheduled times.
