Cartoon of Volunteers all shapes and sizes

The beer festival is organised and staffed entirely by volunteers and an event of this kind can't happen without their hard work and dedication. We'd love to see many of the volunteers from previous years back again and all new faces will be welcome. Thank you to those of you who volunteered in previous years.

Working at the festival can be great fun, the work isn't too onerous and previous experience is not necessary. We offer volunteers a range of benefits and we are grateful for the time you can spare.

You can specify where you would like to work, on the beer bars, selling cider or perry or perhaps take on one of the backroom roles (such as selling tokens or receiving and signing in volunteers from 8am to late); we will always do our best to try to accommodate your wishes. Most people prefer to help on the main bars, but please consider giving cider a go, it's just as much fun helping on there.

Volunteering for 2023 has now closed. Thank you to all those whose have already submitted a form - we will see you at the festival.

If you are too late to volunteer this year, please consider applying next year.
