Bar Sales
Bar Sales volunteers sell alcoholic drinks to Jazz Festival patrons at Old Market Square. Volunteers work at the front line of the bar, effectively processing cash and card payments while helping to communicate drink orders to Bar volunteers. Bar Sales volunteers will work individually (no longer in pairs) to process payments, and will be paired with a Bar Crew ‘runner’ who will fulfill drink orders. This crew enjoys speaking with patrons, and working in a fast-paced atmosphere.
