Volunteer for the Dia de Portugal Festival! Our event is run by a volunteer group of hard-working, dedicated individuals who want to preserve the Portuguese-American heritage in California for future generations to enjoy. There are many ways you can help!
Committee Volunteers
If you would like to participate in planning the festival, join the Festival Committee! We begin holding monthly meetings in October. Committee members normally chair a sub-committee so that we can effectively handle the growing demands of our growing festival.
Festival Day Volunteers
If you could volunteer just 4 hours on the day of the festival, that would be fantastic! As a festival day volunteer, you’ll have lunch on us! Students may receive community service hours, so schools and youth groups may bring volunteers to both serve and enjoy the festivities!
Here’s how you can help:
- morning set-up
- entrance booth
- information booth
- food and drink booths
- t-shirt booth
- children’s carnival
- afternoon tear-down
We also need help on the day before the festival to set up booths, tables, chairs, signage, and general logistics. Whether you can volunteer on Friday or Saturday (or both), please contact us!
