Applying to be a Volunteer
Can I volunteer for the same role with my friend/family?

Due to the scale of the program, we cannot guarantee that you will be in the same role as your

friend/family. We will ask all applicants to specify their preferences as to where and when they would

like to volunteer. While we will take this information into account when assigning roles and shifts, we

cannot make any guarantees.

Can I still volunteer if I don’t live in Minneapolis/St. Paul area or am not a U.S. citizen?

We welcome everyone to apply and don’t have any restrictions where you are coming from. To apply,

you will need to provide either your social security number, non-US passport number, or applicable visa

number.  If you do travel to volunteer, you will be responsible for your own accommodation and travel

expenses. Please note there are a number of steps you must attend in person, including your face-to-

face interview and applicable training sessions.

Will I receive a volunteer uniform?

Yes, all volunteers will receive, at no cost, an official Minnesota Super Bowl Host Committee volunteer uniform kit that is yours to wear for every shift and to keep after the event. The uniform kit will include a jacket, polo, hat, and more.

Selection of Volunteers
What criteria will you use to select volunteers?

Each volunteer applicant must sign-up for a face-to-face interview and pass a criminal background check. During the interview, we will ask volunteers about why they are interested in joining Crew 52, volunteer experience, and other questions to assess whether they are a good fit for our team. Due to the volume of volunteer applicants, we cannot guarantee those that interview for a position will be placed on Crew 52.
