Ambassadors provide a key role in connecting with the visitors to the Platzl. Volunteers greet and distribute information on the day’s activities.

Gate Security/Greeters Shifts: 1.5-2hrs during evening concerts and Oktoberfest. Volunteers will greet concert goers, oversee donations, monitor/control access to the event site – entry and exit from the concert venue, ensure no outside alcohol is brought into the concert and no
