To make the Gardena Jazz Festival successful the City of Gardena utilizes a number of volunteers during the show.  Volunteers provide an invaluable part in our Festival that includes the following assignments:

    • Gates and entrance
    • VIP table service
    • Souvenir Sales
    • First Aid Tent
    • Backstage Assistance
    • Photography and Videography

 …and more

Volunteers are required to commit at least 4 hours of service before receiving entrance privileges to the Festival.  Longer shifts are available and will include lunch, drinks and breaks. Parking on-site is not provided, however volunteers may park in any legal parking spot on the street or at the Nakaoka Community Center, where a shuttle will be provided or volunteers can pay for parking in the paid parking area.
