Festival Goers
We really couldn’t do this without our volunteers — thank you so much to everyone who helped last year and made the festival such a success.
We’re now looking for volunteers for this year’s festival, and also a few extra hands at Festival HQ during the weekend (even just an hour or two makes a big difference).
If you’d like to get involved, please contact us at
