Festival volunteers – we need you!
The We Invented the Weekend team is looking for amazing volunteers to bring their energy and enthusiasm to a huge, brand new free festival in Salford.
We Invented The Weekend is taking place in MediaCity and Salford Quays on the 10th and 11th of September 2022, bringing together all the things that make our weekends great – music, sport, games, gardening, craft, cooking, shopping and everything in between. It’s free and open to all.
Volunteers will fill a range of roles, including:
- Hosting and welcoming
- Customer service
- Helping guests find their way around
- Promoting the Festival in your community
- Backstage and organising roles
… plus more to be announced
Volunteering is a great way to experience the very first We Invented The Weekend. You’ll be supported in your role, be part of team, meet new people and have fun!
