Construction
Pre and Post Festival
The Construction team is responsible for creating the environment and atmosphere for the Festival. Duties vary greatly in this team, so there’s something for everyone. You’ll be unpacking containers, sorting supplies, distributing equipment and furniture, hanging bunting and even helping with building dancefloors!
The Mesh unit of the team creates attractive walkways to direct visitors to and throughout the Festival. It does this by using pre-printed mesh. The team also creates enclosures and privacy spaces throughout the site by blocking or covering unattractive and ‘no-go’ areas. The focus is both practical and creative.
Who
Those with building experience are highly desirable, but don’t be discouraged if that’s not you - we need all levels of ability. The team encompasses many roles, including hanging mesh and murals around the site, installing temporary walls or fences, and setting up services and venues onsite.
Most of the volunteers have a reasonable level of fitness, an eye for detail and creativity. However, the team welcomes diversity and can find jobs for most applicants. We are looking for people with EWP and forklift qualifications as well.
When
This team operates up to 7 days before the Festival, from Saturday March 20 to Thursday March 25, and three days after it, Tuesday March 30 to Thursday 1st of April.
Working hours are 8am-4pm daily with breaks and lunch included.
Volunteers for this team are expected to complete at least 30 hours of work.
4 days work; 8am - 4pm including breaks (morning tea and lunch provided).
How
All volunteers must complete the online safety induction as part of their application. Some teams may require additional training or briefings before the Festival. If this applies to your role, your Team Coordinator will advise you. Volunteers should also read any role-specific information or guides provided by their Coordinator.
