Volunteer Opportunities

Becoming a volunteer at Spruce Meadows is simple, and we’re excited to welcome you into our community. As Spruce Meadows is not directly serviced by public transit, we recommend that volunteers have reliable transportation and are able to travel to and from the grounds with ease. 

Volunteer shifts are offered across a variety of dates and times throughout our events and programming. We do our best to align opportunities with your availability, while ensuring strong coverage across all areas of the grounds.

Our team will connect with you to explore the best fit and guide you through the next steps of the onboarding process. We look forward to welcoming you to Spruce Meadows.

At the same time, we are always excited to welcome new members into this community, people who want to be part of something meaningful, engaging, and uniquely rewarding.
