Ravinia® is both North America’s longest-running not-for-profit music festival and its most artistically diverse. Over 100 different events by a mix of classical, rock, pop, jazz, R&B, indie, and country performers make up a typical summer season on our two open-air and two indoor stages. Each year, the Chicago Symphony Orchestra is featured in six weeks of concerts, many with Chief Conductor Marin Alsop. During the same summer months, the Ravinia Steans Music Institute provides young professional classical and jazz musicians with career-advancing training and concert settings.
Offstage and year-round, Ravinia’s Reach Teach Play education programs engage 85,000 children and adults—in schools with little to no music curriculum, in our Chicagoland communities, and at our 36-acre park—in our mission to make music equitably accessible to all.
The Ravinia guest experience is more than the performance on stage. Our beautiful, welcoming park is what makes listening to music at Ravinia truly special. Our park is our pride, and keeping it clean and beautiful is essential to our success. Park Operations members are the hard-working heroes who keep our park looking and operating at its best. Each of our employees contributes to making live music at Ravinia extraordinary from morning to night.
We’re seeking an energetic, reliable Event Operations Assistant to help with the daily operation of the Park Operations Department. This position is responsible mainly for setting up/breaking down banquet furniture and stocking programs for the night’s concert. However, every day at Ravinia is different, so we need someone flexible and willing to pitch in when needed. Typical hours are 7:00 AM—3:30 PM, 40 hours a week, including weekends.
