Some of you have been part of Festaff for 5, 10, even 15 summers.
You’ve done the early briefings, the extra shifts and the end-of-night pack-downs.
And still, when applications open, your name comes back in.
What keeps you coming back?
Is it the people you only see once a year but feel like lifelong friends?
The atmosphere when the gates open and the crowd pours in?
The sense of being part of something bigger than yourself?
Tell us in the comments, we’re all ears.
And if you’re thinking about joining us for the first time in 2026, have a read, our volunteers say it best!

We all have that one on the bucket list.
Maybe it’s a festival you’ve watched from afar for years. Maybe it’s somewhere you’ve always wanted to go but could never get a ticket.
Maybe it’s just a feeling, a stage, a crowd, a summer evening you’ve pictured in your head.
So tell us, what’s the one festival you’ve always wanted to volunteer at? Drop it in the comments below ⬇️
You might be closer than you think.

A festival in the Scottish Highlands. 🏴
Belladrum is one of those festivals that stays with you, nestled in the hills, brilliant atmosphere, and a crowd that absolutely loves being there. And as a Festaff volunteer, you get to be right in the heart of it.
If you’ve ever fancied a reason to head north this summer, this might just be it.
Applications for Belladrum 2026 are still open at festaff.co.uk, we’d love to see you there ☀️
Sometimes it’s the little moments that stay with you.
Jamie and Emma tried wristbanding and loved it welcoming people through the
gates, being part of that first excited moment when someone arrives at a festival.
As Jamie puts it: “If you put on a wristband, it’s a very happy moment. You’re part of that.”
Every role plays its part. And that feeling of being right there when the festival begins? You can’t put a price on it.
Fancy experiencing it for yourself? Applications for 2026 are open at festaff.co.uk
Was it a massive headline act on a huge stage? A smaller festival that completely surprised you?
Or somewhere you nearly didn’t go — and then couldn’t stop talking about afterwards?
Tell us in the comments — what was the first festival you ever volunteered at with Festaff? ☀️
We love hearing your stories, and we have a feeling this one’s going to bring back some brilliant memories.
There’s still time, applications for 2026 are open at festaff.co.uk 🌅
Sometimes the best way to explain what Festaff is all about is to let our volunteers do the talking.
Secure camping, food vouchers, showers, and a ready-made group of people who genuinely look out for each other, especially if you’re coming on your own.
As Sue Keenan, one of our longest-returning volunteers, puts it: „They’re my family now.”
That’s what keeps people coming back year after year. And it could be yours too.
Applications are still open: LIDO, BST, APE & Roundhay Festival, apply now at festaff.co.uk, come and find your people! ☀️
