Volunteering

Location guardians:

 

Our locations spread our throughout the city and it is important to have them staffed at all times during the festival. 

Weather you enjoy the outdoors and prefer staying outside, or you would rather be indoors, we have a role for you! 

The location volunteers make sure everything goes smoothly at all locations at all times: theater, concert venues, outdoor projection venues, these will be your main areas of work for the festival.

– Offer information 

– Attend entrance 

– Check tickets and invitations

– Organize the locations for each event and make sure everything is (almost) perfect for our public and guests

 

Working time: 4–6-hour shifts / day. The day ends when the last guest has left, and the location is in order for the next day. For out of town events, the working times may vary.
