Love music, and making a difference in your community?
We’re looking for YOU to become a volunteer at Mile 7! Our signup page is officially open, and you can register to volunteer right here.
In just 40 days, 200+ artists will be in Downtown Appleton to perform 900 sets throughout 60 of our great local venues! We are looking for folks who are excited to show what our Downtown and community can offer to artists/bands and the many visitors who are coming from across the state, Midwest, and nation to experience Mile of Music!
Each year, more than 400 music-loving volunteers Help Make The Music Happen at Mile of Music. We are always in search of friendly, energetic and hard-working individuals to fill a variety of fun and important volunteer roles aimed at ensuring the festival runs smoothly, and we want this to be YOU!
