Dates: Thursday, September 7th - Sunday, September 10th, 2023

Transportation is also available, and we ask all volunteers that will need a ride up to Whistler on the day of the event to simply reach out at volunteer@toitevents.com.

Duration: Shift times are role dependent, ranging anywhere from 4-10 hours. Volunteers can choose their preferred timeframes while registering by selecting the role that best suits their schedule.

About the Event:

We could tell you about the breathtaking views of the Sea to Sky paired with the iconic Lions Gate Bridge crossing, all without traffic; or maybe we could tell you about the inspiring riders and fellow people that you would get the chance to meet and work alongside; we could even tell you about the memorable live performances and amenities in Whistler’s Celebration Plaza that you surely wouldn’t want to miss; however, a weekend as great as this truly needs to be experienced firsthand to understand its value! RBC GranFondo Whistler has been, and will continue to be, a staple cycling event in Canada, and despite our biggest event’s climbing popularity, our team is proud to be working towards becoming a certified Zero Waste Event with AWARE. This is your chance to volunteer at an event that values community and environment, all while having a ton of fun in the process!
