Volunteers
The Happy Face Experience
Volunteering at the Happy Face Music Festival is the best way to experience the day from the inside. Pick a shift that fits your schedule, work alongside neighbors who care about Simi Valley, and watch the festival come to life around you.
Setup crews, vendor check-in, stage hands, info booth, cleanup — there's a role for every skill set and every comfort level. Every volunteer gets festival access for the full day, food, and a front-row look at what makes this community so special

Kick off the 2026 summer season with a rockin' summertime music party.
Grab your blankets, throws and lawn chairs. Get ready to bask in the sun, surrounded by breathtaking hilltop views at the Happy Face Festival in Simi Valley. Satisfy your hunger and cravings with delicious eats from the area's best food trucks and restaurant vendors. Quench your thirst with an ice cold beer or soft drinks beverage. But the real party doesn't start until the music begins!
