Qualifications for all volunteer roles
No previous experience is needed but you will need to be:
- Over 16
- Enjoy dealing with people and have a calm, courteous approach to the public
- Supportive of the Festival in its commitment to making events accessible and welcoming
- Punctual and reliable
- Practical and hardworking

Some Stewards need to be more active than others: pick the role which suits your needs.
Training and Rewards for Stewards
We hold a Festival Briefing in June, covering a range of issues including Health and Safety and Festival procedures, which all Stewards need to attend. All events will have a Festival Event Manager as well as stewards.
Stewards get in free to the event they are stewarding and get regular news updates on what’s happening at the Festival.
If any of these volunteer roles appeal to you, please email our Volunteers Coordinator:
