Volunteer at UK festivals
Festival Volunteering
Wicked Stewarding offer amazing opportunities to get involved and become a volunteer at UK festivals and events. Volunteering is a great way to meet new friends and likeminded individuals and be part of the wonderful Wicked Volunteering Team.
There are many rewards to volunteering, not least of all free access to events when off duty, free access to the carpark and free access to the volunteer campsite with showers and other regular amenities. On top of this, it is a brilliant way to support the festival industry and see what goes into making your favourite event come to life. Some festivals also include early access for volunteers, meaning you can beat the rush and settle in before the customers arrive.
To volunteer with Wicked Stewarding, you must be 18 years or older when you arrive on site, pay a deposit and have the right to work in the UK.
We’re always happy to welcome new people, so if you think festival volunteering may be for you, come join the team.
