The Volunteer Team Behind CityFolk

Ww2e recommend you also apply to ONE (1) publicly recruited team while you’re waiting for your acceptance.
Let the weather be the only surprise this season! ☀️💨🌦
Night Owls (18+)
Are you one of those people who enjoys long summer nights? If working from the comfort of a cutting-edge security console overnight sounds like something you’d be interested in, then you’re probably a Night Owl!
The Night Owls are a volunteer team who keep a sharp eye on the festival grounds overnight. As the festival sleeps, we go to work ensuring the grounds are secure until sun-up. We silently monitor and protect the area and equipment from anyone who might wander by and decide they want to take home a souvenir without the festival’s permission or consent.

Photography (18+)
The volunteer photo team focuses on photographing extraordinary folk volunteers as they work and enjoy the festival. Combining photography with some videography, this team captures volunteers in their element to find their most memorable moments, their favourite festival experiences, and the magic of why they keep coming back to volunteer.
