Volunteer

many hands make light work

Thank you for your interest in learning about how to volunteer with the Vail Wine Classic. Part of the Classic’s mission is to promote and develop an awareness and appreciation for food and wine in the beautiful city of Vail while raising funds for a great non-profit beneficiary. You can help us complete our mission by volunteering with the Vail Wine Classic during one or more shifts at the event.

set up crew

These volunteers will work as a team to get the event facility ready, performing duties including, but not limited to: popping tents, setting up tables and chairs, moving product into place, setting up merchandise, beer mugs and ticket stations, hanging banners and signs, moving ice, placing trash cans. Please let us know in advance if you have any physical limitations. As this role can be fairly physical, we do have duties that are less demanding. Recommended clothing: pants or shorts to get a little messy in, supportive shoes and work/gardening gloves.
