Volunteers can earn free tickets to 2023 UI jazz festival

Community members and University of Idaho students and staff members can sign up through April 10 to help with the Lionel Hampton Jazz Festival in Moscow.

The festival, which has brought professional musicians together with K-12 and college students to celebrate and perform jazz for more than five decades, is set for April 19-22 on the UI campus.

“It takes the support of hundreds of volunteers to make the festival happen,” festival manager Navin Chettri said in a news release. “It’s a great opportunity for volunteers to develop skills in the operations and management of a festival, enjoy the experience of great live jazz and be a part of a historical jazz festival in its 56th year.”

Volunteers will receive one free concert ticket for every four hours of service. Registration is at bit.ly/JazzFestVolSignUp
