We are looking for a number of local volunteers aged 18 or over to help make the festival a success. If you can spare time between 10am and 10pm on Saturday 27th April and would like to help with one of Northwich’s most anticipated events, we want to hear from you!

As a volunteer, you are key to a successful event by being an ambassador for Northwich and helping people to enjoy both the programme and the town itself.
You will be given a briefing prior to your shift and allocated one of the following roles:
This will mean working in pairs at some of the key locations in the town centre, either at a performance space or at one of the local venues. You will be our eyes and ears on the ground. As part of this role, you will need to answer questions about the festival and the town centre – and generally be helpful to visitors.
You will be extra hands (and legs!) of support for our artist liaison team; helping to ensure artists get to the right locations on time, and ensuring the artists have a great time at the festival themselves as well!
This role is super important to the festival as we need to collect and collate people’s information and opinions of the festival. You will be equipped with a tablet and will need to engage people in answering a few questions about the festival. This will help us to plan and develop the festival for next year.
Arts and crafts activities will be taking place at various locations in Northwich and we need extra pairs of hands (and eyes) to help smaller festival visitors get stuck in with a variety of activities.
All roles require people to be friendly, enthusiastic and helpful to ensure the public has the very best experience. You may be given a specific role but might need to help out in other ways. We are one team so ‘teamwork’ is essential; don't worry, it's always super fun!
Most roles will require a good level of mobility including being on your feet for long periods of time – a good pair of comfy shoes is a must! However, if you do have concerns about this, we can ensure you are positioned in roles and locations that are not too demanding.
To volunteer with us, you must be available for the following: a pre-event briefing on Monday 22nd April (essential - time TBC); the event day on Saturday 27th April, 10am to 10pm – or part of the day. And, if possible, available to support in the set up and de-rig of the event.
