Volunteer

Be part of the team that makes the UK’s longest continually running festival of Outdoor Arts come to life.

Each year we need lots of volunteers to help keep our audiences smiling and our events running smoothly.

Help us out with: event set-up, artist liaison, fundraising, information points, and more.

As a volunteer you will:

  • Gain valuable festival experience
  • Be part of a friendly team
  • Meet artists from across the world
  • Be provided with support for any special requirements
  • Be part of a fun, sometimes eccentric and always unique festival!

In order to volunteer you will need to:

  • Be aged 18 or over
  • Be friendly and responsible

If you have some time to spare in June or July for Hat Fair and are keen to get involved then we would love to hear from you.
