Dear Festival Volunteer:

With four stages of non-stop music, spanning across both Hart Plaza and Campus Martius in downtown Detroit, the 38th Annual Detroit Jazz Festival presented by Quicken Loans remains the largest free jazz festival in the world

Every Labor Day weekend, the Festival creates unique musical explorations from jazz legends, those in their prime and up-and-coming artists who are keeping the legacy alive. Musicians and fans from around the world come to the city of Detroit to experience the American jazz art form. We couldn’t keep it free for everyone without the passion and commitment of our volunteers.​

The spirit of community involvement has long contributed to the success of the Detroit Jazz Festival presented by Quicken Loans.  A festival of this magnitude would not be possible without a dedicated corps of volunteers. If you love jazz music, working with people, behind-the-scenes involvement, the hustle and bustle of the entertainment business, and giving back to the community, the DETROIT JAZZ FESTIVAL PRESENTED BY QUICKEN LOANS WANTS YOU!

Due to the endless fun and memorable experiences, many of our volunteers return year after year, but we still need more. We need your passion, enthusiasm, and energy in the following volunteer areas:

  • Transportation
  • Merchandising
  • Operations
    • On-Site Support
    • Stage Support
    • Production Support
  • Administration

Each volunteer will receive a commemorative Detroit Jazz Festival presented by Quicken Loans Volunteer t-shirt, a discount on Official Festival merchandise, an invitation to the annual volunteer party and an earful of great music.
