Greetings and thank you for clicking here. Please read on to see if you would like to volunteer in the ticket office at the entrance to the festival for Buddhafield 2024.
This year, the festival days are from the 17th to the 21st July. We are looking for people to work in either of two roles as follows:
- Become part of the Buddhafield Family and immerse yourself by arriving on site to start work at midday on Sunday 14th July. This a supervisor role and requires 30 hours in total from Sunday, 14th until Saturday, 20th July 2024.
- Alternatively, come and join one of the teams checking people in as they arrive from Wednesday, 17th July, until Saturday, 20th July 2024. You will work for 20 hours in total.
The ticket office does not open on Sunday 21st July.
You can apply to either of these teams through this page.
