Volunteering

As usual, we need volunteers for a variety of roles for set up and take down as well as during the festival.

Set up and take down are where everything essential to putting on a great festival really happens.  Preparing the premises, building the stillage and then the really important part, racking and preparing the beer.  Then after all of the fun and the visitors have all gone home, the essential task of clearing the site still needs to be completed.  Resourcing set up and take down are as essential as working the festival itself, so if you are able, please give consideration to helping out before and after the festival days.  If you’ve not done it before, there’s a few new skills to be learnt!

During the festival, the biggest job is serving beer, but other essential jobs, such as door, glasses, vouchers and games must be covered also.  Jobs are allocated on the basis of a rota and during each session you may be given a variety of tasks to do. If there are any jobs you would prefer NOT to do, please note this on the volunteer form below.

Individual letters of confirmation will be sent to all of our volunteers. The final confirmation and information pack will be sent out in early March 2019.
