EMWF relies on the many generous volunteers who donate their time to make the festival a warm and welcoming experience for our patrons.
Generally, the time commitment is a 2-3 hour shift on Festival Sunday (September 12, 2027).
Please stay tuned to this page for our volunteer application form.
We are committed to providing a volunteer application process that is accessible and complies with the Accessibility for Ontarians with Disabilities Act (AODA). Please notify us if you require any accommodations during any stage of the volunteer intake process.
