Volunteers Wanted for Norfolk and Norwich Festival 2025

Norfolk & Norwich Festival, East Anglia's largest arts festival, has launched its volunteer recruitment this week. Their recruitment programme begins on Wednesday 12th February and closes Monday 10th March.

As a key part of this event, a volunteer team of more than 100 local people are assembled each year to support the delivery of the 17 day Festival which delivers a diverse array of world-class performances, exhibitions, and events - the full programme for which will be public on Tuesday 18th February.

Paula Saulite, Volunteers Coordinator at the Festival said “We always have a wonderfully dedicated group of people join us each year. It’s a great way to meet new people, learn new skills and get a behind-the-scenes look at one of the country’s leading arts festivals.”

As a charity, Volunteers play a crucial role in ensuring the Festival's success. Denise Findlay, partner at law firm, Birketts, who are this year supporting the Volunteer programme at the Festival said “Norfolk & Norwich Festival has been helping ensure our community prospers for more than 250 years. A significant part of that longevity is down to the fact that everyone, from all walks of life, can make a positive contribution to the Festival. We are delighted to support the magnificent team who contribute so much and will help deliver the Festival this year.”

The volunteer team help deliver over 100 events across the Festival programme, which runs from Friday 9 to Sunday 25 May. They deliver on various roles across this period including as Stewards, Runner Assistants, Drivers and hosts for the Adnams Spiegeltent.
