The Festival is fortunate to have a dedicated band of enthusiastic volunteers, who work in partnership with it staff to achieve the successful festival that audiences know and love.

There are a multitude of ways to get involved, including stewarding, artist transport, bar, brochure distribution, refreshments, banners, hospitality, Box Office support and many more.

Volunteers make new friends and play a vital part in the success and smooth running of the festival. They also help to create its famously friendly atmosphere. It’s a team effort and everyone has a part to play. An annual party provides a moment for all volunteers to gather and share memories of the festival.

‘Volunteering for the festival is an honour and lot of fun. I’ve met musicians who are heroes of mine, heard amazing performances and made a lot of friends along the way.’
