Volunteering at Red Rocks is an excellent opportunity to raise funds for your home band program. After covering all expenses of the championships, a portion of the revenues are distributed back to each participating program based on the number of volunteer hours contributed by parents and fans. When you sign in, just make sure to note which school you would like your hours to be credited to.
If you happen to sign up for a shift that overlaps your band's performance time, we will make sure you are able to step away from your assignment so you can watch your band. A Volunteer Viewing area will be accessible by going to the elevator by the ticket booth in the west stands. This viewing area is available to volunteers only and you must be wearing your badge.
Volunteer Signups will go live at a date and time to be determined. Please stay tuned!
Assigned Volunteer Positions
The Red Rocks competition is organized by a Committee that includes individuals from a variety of experiences and band programs.
