Volunteers are needed at this month’s Car Free YYJ Event.

The annual event, hosted by the Downtown Victoria Business Association, opens up 4,000 square feet of Douglas Street into a downtown, pedestrian-friendly venue.

The Father’s Day fest will include five stages for live entertainment, food and beverage vendors, a 19+ beer garden and kiosks form more than 400 local artists, businesses and local organizations.

However, for all of that to come together more volunteers are needed.

In a Facebook post, organizing contributor Atomique Productions said it was “desperately” seeking volunteers who could help “create a zero-waste event alongside the green team.”

Volunteers are needed for a couple hours at at time between 11 a.m. and 6 p.m. on Sunday, June 16.

Anyone interested can email team@atomiqueproductions.com (dance party, music and treats included).
