Festival Volunteers Wanted
Are you friendly, approachable, and reliable?
Do you want to gain experience and knowledge in a busy artistic environment, at a leading national music event?
Simmer Down Festival 2018 is the UK's largest free reggae festival, and we are looking for
volunteers just like you to help make it BIGGER and BETTER than ever before!
The annual event, now entering its 8th year, will be held on Sunday 21st July 2019 in
Handsworth Park in Birmingham.
We are recruiting multiple volunteers for the following positions:
Stewards & Artist Liaison
Stewards are the face of the Festival. We are looking for passionate, energetic
Volunteers who are willing to arrive early and prepare the site and then spend the day interacting and providing excellent customer service to the 19,000 + crowd.
You must be well-spoken, friendly, and willing to engage in all areas of the event.
You will be our eyes and ears, feeding back critical information and helping the public to maximise their experience and enjoyment.

Responsibilities may include: Car Park attendant, checking wrist-bands, loading equipment, capturing data, and working as a stage runner.
Media & PR
Our media volunteers need to be creative and passionate about the Festival.
You must be able to generate a buzz and to engage traditional and new audiences. We are looking for people who have an excellent knowledge of the UK arts and music scenes, and who can hit the ground running on various social media platforms. You will also help spread the word through traditional printed media so knowledge of Birmingham and a get-up- and-go attitude are essential.
Essential Criteria
You must be presentable, with excellent verbal communication skills and a pleasant attitude.
Over the age of 18 by 1st July 2019
