A multi-day, multi-faceted event like The Great Canadian Cheese Festival relies on volunteers to make it all happen. They need a large, enthusiastic group of worker bees and a handful of take-charge people to lead teams of volunteers.

Volunteering with The Great Canadian Cheese Festival is a fun and rewarding experience where you get to work alongside experienced event co-ordinators and famous Canadian chefs—and don’t forget the delicious cheese!

Culinary students and interns, community members, foodies and everyone with a passion for Canadian cheese are encouraged to join the effort.

They need a wide range of skills and experience:

• Registration staff and admission ticket takers
• Parking attendants
• Tasting ticket sellers
• Servers
• Hosts/greeters
• Tour guides
• Cheese-prep teams for the tutored tastings
• Culinary teams to work with chefs
• Set-up and tear-down crews
• Team leaders.

Volunteers will receive a colourful cheese festival t-shirt, tasting tickets or lunch, admission to food fair, and the opportunity to taste over 100 cheeses (!).

Registration forms can be found here for general volunteers or here for Culinary Students & Interns.

All questions should be directed to Becky: becky@cheeselover.ca
