Become a volunteer
Are you considering becoming a volunteer for L'Étape Trondheim?
Would you like to take part in what is closest to a Tour de France experience, namely L'Étape Trondheim, which takes place on Saturday, June 13?
Even if you are not cycling, you can still be part of the big celebration. Altogether, we need approximately +/- 400–500 volunteers. 3 sports clubs (Kolstad IL, TVK and Byåsen IL) have already confirmed that they will provide many volunteers, but we need more.
As a volunteer, you can choose which groups you would like to be part of, and you will receive thorough training so that you feel confident in your tasks. You become part of an engaged community, meet new people, build lasting friendships, and share a great experience together. At the same time, you gain unique experience and memories for life – and most importantly, you become an important contributor to a successful event. Your effort makes a difference.
Even though this is a recreational race, we aim to maintain the same standard and quality as a real Tour de France race in France.
Minimum age is 16 with an accompanying adult, otherwise 18 years old.
