Volunteer Opportunity: Kids’ Activity Ambassador at the St. Paul European Christmas Market
The St. Paul European Christmas Market (ECM) is entering its 12th year and gearing up for its most magical season yet—welcoming more than 250,000 visitors in 2025!
One of the highlights of ECM is the joy it brings to children. Every year, our vendors partner with us to provide free or low-cost holiday activities for kids—from decorating cookies and painting wooden toys to coloring ornaments, solving puzzles, and even writing letters to Santa.
We’re looking for enthusiastic volunteers to help spread holiday cheer as Kids’ Activity Ambassadors! In this role, you’ll:
✨ Greet families and guide children to fun activities around the market
✨ Explain and demonstrate activities so vendors can focus on their craft and sales
✨ Help little ones find Santa’s mailbox, decorate cookies, or get started on a craft project
✨ Create magical moments and big smiles in a festive, outdoor winter wonderland
No experience is needed—just a love for the holidays, a warm smile, and the spirit of giving. This is the perfect role if you enjoy being around kids, want to experience the magic of a European Christmas Market, and love bringing joy to others.
Come be part of the holiday magic and help create memories for thousands of families this season!
