VOLUNTEER SUPPORT

— Volunteer Application coming in February 2025 —

Want to save money on your TAP New York ticket and meet lots of new people? Then join us as a volunteer for the event!! We have a variety of tasks to make the event run smoothly, and most shifts run 2 hours, giving you 3 hours to enjoy the festival! Bring your friends and family and volunteer as a group!

Volunteers get the following perks:

  • Opportunity to enter the event at the same time as VIPs ($89 value) to attend the event before or after your shift — get 3+ hours of the event in exchange for working just 2 hours! The Volunteer ticket does not grant access to the VIP Lounge.

  • Opportunity to volunteer either or both days — or volunteer one full day and enjoy the full festival the next day!

  • Invitation to Friday night and Saturday night after-parties at Blackthorne Resort!

This event is rain or shine! Volunteers must be 21+. Volunteers cannot consume any alcohol or be visibly impaired during their shifts due to insurance and licensing requirements. Volunteer tickets to the event will be available when you check-in for your shift. More specific information about where to go and park will be emailed as we get closer to the event. 

Just so you know, we will be running $2.99 on your credit card to ensure it works. Believe it or not, some people volunteer for a brewfest, take their free ticket and enjoy the event, and then forget to show up for their volunteer shift! We know you’ll show up like you promised, but if you somehow get caught up in the moment and don’t check-in, just know that we will run your card after the event for the full $89 amount.

When: Saturday, June 28, 2025 and/or Sunday, June 29, 2025
Where: Blackthorne Resort, 348 Sunside Rd., East Durham NY

Please enter the VIP Entrance and go to the Volunteer Station to receive your Volunteer Lanyard, which provides early access to the event. Check back with the Volunteer Station at least 10 minutes before your shift for additional instructions.
