Be a part of it! Five reasons to Volunteer at Perth Festival

Have the experience of a lifetime and help us get the show on the road!

Our Volunteers are absolutely vital to making our Festival a success every year. We're looking for more incredible people to make our 2020 Festival the best yet!

Here's five reasons to get involved as part of our 2020 Volunteer team!

1. Front row seats at Highway to Hell

Where better to take in the action of the world’s longest stage than to be right on it?

Our Vollies will be everywhere at our big closing event on March 1 – taking in the very best experiences of this epic event! Will you be part of the action?

2. Some of the best conversations you’ll ever have

Our volunteers tend to surface in some fantastic places that put them in prime spots to meet artists, authors and generally amazing people who travel the world to be a part of or attend our Festival.

Volunteer at our Literature and Ideas weekend (formerly Writers Week) and you never know – you might wind up having a one on one with your favourite author, or meet a whole new bunch of like-minded book lovers!

3. Looks great on your CV

What better way to show future employers you are willing to contribute to a team, than by volunteering for activities you care about?

Volunteering at Perth Festival is a brilliant way to get a gold star on your resume that shows how value-driven you are. We thank you, and so does your next workplace!

4. Go behind the scenes

Ever wondered how a Festival comes together? Our volunteers get to see every corner of the action.
