Wicked Events gives you the chance to step straight into the heart of the UK’s festival and events scene as part of our volunteer team.
Volunteering with Wicked is all about great people, big experiences and unforgettable moments. You’ll meet new friends, work alongside like-minded festival lovers, and become part of a supportive, energetic team helping to bring incredible events to life.
And the perks? They’re hard to beat. Enjoy free access to events when you’re off duty, free parking, and a place in the volunteer campsite with showers and essential facilities so you can fully enjoy the festival experience.
Volunteering is also a brilliant way to support the festival industry and see what really goes on behind the scenes. Some events even offer early access for volunteers, giving you the chance to arrive ahead of the crowds, get set up, and settle in before the gates open.
To volunteer with Wicked Events, you must be 18 or over on arrival, able to pay a refundable deposit, and have the right to work in the UK.
We’re always excited to welcome new people so if you’re ready to get involved, make memories, and be part of something Wicked, join the team.

"This will be my third year volunteering with Wicked Events. Even if you start out on your own, once you arrive at the HQ Tent, you quickly become part of the crew.
We put in the work during our shifts then kick back and soak up the festival vibes for free!"

"I really enjoyed working with this crew at Vegan Camp Out 2024. I found everyone to be kind, resourceful and supportive.
I would not only recommend but would definitely work with this company again. 10/10."
