Would you like to volunteer at Oxford Folk Festival 2026? We’re hoping that the answer is “YES”!

Oxford Folk Festival is a volunteer-led and run festival, and, to make this wonderful celebration work, we need lots of help over the weekend.

How could I help?

There are a variety of jobs you could do, including stewarding, setting up before gigs and clearing up afterwards, checking tickets on the door, or helping behind the bar at our festival ceilidhs.
 

What can I expect if you volunteer?

We ask you to do one shift of 3-4 hours. This includes breaks, which give you a chance to enjoy a dance or some music.
 

What would I get in return? 

In addition to our enormous gratitude for helping to make the Festival a success, you will also get free entry to another event of your choice over the weekend – find out more over at our What’s On page.
 

How do I sign up? 

Send an email as soon as possible to Heather White at oxfolkstewards@gmail.com to let us know you’d like to help. Thank you very much for your interest, and enjoy the festival!
