    Bloomsbury Festival 2024 – Human.
    Kind has inspired a multitude of events, exhibitions, walks, performances, and more for October 2024.

    To assist the smooth running of this year's 10 day festival, Bloomsbury Festival is on the search for volunteers to become Festival Event Stewards.

    We rely on these Event Stewards to:
    become representatives of the Festival at venues and on walks.
    assist in crowd management, safeguarding, information distribution, attendance checking, set up, and partner communications.
    aide our Staff to put forward successful events.

    It is a great way to learn more about the Bloomsbury area and the people within it, as well as get first hand experience at what it's like to be part of an annual arts, culture and science festival.

    The amount of hours/days you volunteer for the Festival depends on your availability, we are willing to work around your schedules.

    We will need Event Stewards for various events, hubs and walks throughout the 10 days of October (18th-27th) however if you let us know your availability beforehand we can allocate you to shifts that suit your schedule, we only ask than after the Stewarding schedule is confirm you are committed to attending your allocated shifts.

    Festival days can begin early (generally from 10am) and can go on until late evening (on occasion until 10pm), depending on the events you sign up for.

    There is no expectation to do full days, you can organise with your supervisor to just attend morning, afternoon or evening sessions to work around any timetables.

    For events such as our Opening Launch Night (Friday 18th Oct.) and our 3 day Discovery Hub (19th-21st Oct.) we may need Stewards to attend a 3-4 hour shift but this will be upon agreement with your volunteer supervisor.

    Overall, there is no specific number of shifts Stewards are expected to attend during the festival. However, we do expect Stewards to be available for a few events throughout the festival.

    Designed for anyone (18+) who has an interest in supporting the festival and/or gaining additional skills and work experience.

    The duties of our Event Stewards are to assist our staff at events and venues with crowd management and audience feedback, all volunteers will be briefed in advance but when in doubt you can refer to either a festival staff member present or the 2024 brochure.

    You may occasionally be asked to help with set up or pack up of an event under the supervision of a staff member.

    If you are allocated to a guided walking tour, you will be the main representative of the Festival during this walk.

    Event Stewards will also be helping with our evaluation and feedback collection at venues, events and walks.

    At free turn-up events you may be asked to keep track of audience numbers, promote our feedback QR code and physical forms, as well as report back any feedback from audiences you may hear.

    We are constantly wanting to evolve the Festival but cannot be in multiple venues at once, Event Stewards assist our festival evaluations and reporting by prompting attendees to provide feedback.

    What will the volunteering role offer the student and what will they learn while they are with you?
    We will be offering training sessions in September/October during the lead up to the Festival. Wednesday 25 September – Introduction to the Festival and Team

    Additional training sessions may be added in September, including an introduction to Event Management and Box Office. Overall, Stewards will have first-hand experience in helping run an annual arts, culture and science Festival.
