Seasons are to do with weather and climate. A volcano may erupt anytime not in summer or winter, that is irrelevant. Volcanoes do not erupt in a season, the reason they erupt is due to the build up of magma in the Earth's crust below the place they erupt. Some volcanoes are: extinct, nothing happening for a very long time dormant, they have not erupted for a long time but might become active in 500-1000 years active, they 'dribble or spew' all the time new ones which erupt sometimes after other thermal activity becomes apparent sometimes unexpectedly but usually in an area where there are other volcanoes or thermal activity. An example is the Volcanic Plateau in New Zealand which is part of the Pacific Rim of Fire where many extinct, dormant and active volcanoes are situated.
