Get Involved

The Sugar Maple Festival is put on entirely by the hard work of volunteers. They are the reason the festival is a huge success each year — it the could not happen without them. There are many shifts available during the festival, so please consider volunteering.

A wide variety of volunteer positions are available throughout the festival season. These opportunities offer the satisfaction of supporting one of Madison’s top not-for-profit, volunteer-driven, family-friendly annual events. Please read below or contact us if you’d like to become a vounteer at our many Sugar Maple Festival events!
