This is an application form for offering Walkabouts at Buddhafield Festival 2024. Our theme for 2024 is With Arms Wide Open. The festival will run from Wednesday 17th July to Sunday 21st July.
Walkabouts are acts that brighten up the festival generally, without being based in a particular venue. The main focus will be entertaining the people who are out on the field queuing for workshops - who often have to wait a long time, (and sometimes don’t even get in if there is a limit to capacity). We are looking for mobile acts which are lively, interactive, uplifting and colourful.
Walkabout shifts are generally 90mins-2hrs a day, in exchange for your ticket and a vehicle pass.
Applications will stay open until 1st June. We will start processing applications from that date. We won't be able to comment on the progress of your application until after then, so please be patient. You can log in to your eventree account anytime to view your application details. We will contact you to offer you a slot or to let you know you have been unsuccessful.
Please answer as many questions as possible. Completing this form fully saves time and energy in the long run. We ask for all the information needed to find you an appropriate performance slot, and promote you online, in the printed festival programme, and at the information point on site.
Warmly,
The Walkabouts Team
- We ask walkabout artists to work a minimum of 2 hours a day for their ticket, with a check-in at the beginning of your shift.
- We understand that walkabout acts often require multiple people. However, unfortunately there are very limited tickets available for us to allocate for this discipline. Therefore you are more likely to be accepted if your act can offer value by working with people who are already available on-site through other routes; present multiple acts or appearances; or function with a minimal team.
