We all work together with a giggle and a grin"

Thank you to the 600-strong volunteer team that helped to put on this year's festival!!!
The Ottawa Folk Festival would not be possible without the commitment, hard work, energy and enthusiasm that volunteers have shown every year over the festival's seventeen-year history. Volunteers are a core part of the festival community, along with the artists, staff, and others participating in festival events. Great efforts, along with big smiles, have made amazing things happen
