The Festival at Sandpoint is seeking volunteers for its 2023 summer concert series, being held this year from July 27 through Aug. 6.

Festival officials said they are incredibly grateful to have such a supportive community that volunteers their time and effort year after year, Cienna Roget, Festival public relations, said.

"An annual event as large as the Festival at Sandpoint Summer Performance Series would not be possible without the outstanding team of over 600 volunteers that pitch in each year," she added.

Volunteer departments include front gate, merchandise, green team, hospitality, and more. Roget said volunteering is a great way to be part of the Festival excitement while also giving back to the community and a non-profit organization.

The Festival at Sandpoint is also seeking production crew members to join the team for this year's concerts. The production crew assists in the physical setup of the venue, provides essential operating support of the venue for the duration of the series, and restores War Memorial Field upon completion of the event.
