Village Host Program
Village Hosts are invaluable to the visitor experience in Whistler and provide guidance, direction and genuinely kind assistance.
If you have a passion for Whistler, a positive outlook, a sound knowledge of Whistler’s services and the willingness to learn even more, we invite to join us for a season of fun! Local community members of all ages and backgrounds are invited to volunteer as Village Hosts.
Village Host is an ongoing year-round program. We ask that Village Hosts volunteer for up to 20 shifts each season. The summer season runs from June to November and the winter season runs from December to May.

The Bike Host Program is a Resort Municipality of Whistler initiative. As resort ambassadors, Bike Host volunteers inform visitors who are on the trails and in the parks with quick answers and helpful directions, and impart an enjoyable and friendly experience while people visit our resort.
The Bike Host Program operates from mid-May until the end of September. We ask that Bike Hosts volunteer for up to 10 shifts. Shifts are three hours in duration and are available in the morning and afternoon.
If you love to bike ride, enjoy connecting with visitors as well as have a good knowledge of Whistler’s parks and trails, we invite to join us for a summer of fun!
