Volunteers
Are you interested in volunteering at our 2025 show or future shows?
The Swan Hill Show Society is always looking for friendly volunteers to help out before, during and after the Show. It is a great opportunity to give back to the community as well as meet a wide variety of people and learn a little bit more about how the Swan Hill Show is run.
All volunteers are provided with catered meals from the lovely Pavilion Supporters whilst on the Showgrounds undertaking their duties. We ask all our volunteers to read the Volunteer Handbook to familiarize yourself with the Show Society's policies & procedures for insurance purposes.
If you are interested in volunteering, please contact the Show Office on: (03) 5032 4314 each Wednesday
throughout the year or drop in for a visit during opening hours.
