Stewarding at Priddy Folk Festival
The whole festival is run by a committee of volunteers - with the purpose of raising money for the village school and community whilst having a great time. Volunteer stewards are an essential part of the festival; the event simply wouldn't happen without your help, so we are recruiting stewards for the weekend.
What we offer
As last year, we are offering a full weekend ticket + free camping in exchange for two 4 hour stints of duty. All stewards must be 18 or more years of age.
If you want to join our happy band of helpers please go to the ticketing page and take the option for Steward Application (please note you have to do this separately for each Steward Application). You will receive back an e-mail confirmation that we have received your application.
If your stewarding services are not required, we will let you know as soon as possible, otherwise you will be contacted to confirm your duties roughly four weeks before the festival.
What we need
In order to run the festival successfully we require a number of volunteer stewards to provide the back-up to the folk festival committee on the days of the festival. The main areas in which we will need help are:
- Site Crew Team - Generally available to do all the setting up of fences, seating etc. Busy times will be on the Thursday and Friday during the day, and on the Sunday and Monday. (Please note, work will involve manual labour which may be inside or outside. Appplicant must be fit and able).
- Venue Team (Concert Marquees, Dance Marquee, Childrens' Marquee, Village Hall, Workshops) - Admission Stewards & Safety Stewards. (there may be light cleaning activities) – normally the most popular and will therefore be full very quickly.
- Car Parking Team - Throughout the weekend from 3pm Friday to about 2pm Sunday. Busiest time will be during the day Saturday (working outside, please bring clothing appropriate for the weather).
- Camping Team - From Thursday throughout the weekend (working outside, please bring clothing appropriate for the weather
All Stewards must have a valid e-mail address and contact phone number.
