The PA Firefly Festival Inc. is a non-profit and as such, we rely on a dedicated team of people to make everything happen.   Volunteers for the 2027  PAFF  will be selected from a local pool and participate in a training.  We look forward to meeting the festival volunteers and guides at an upcoming training in 2027.  Click here to complete an application.  Continue to read below on other ways you can become involved.
