What to expect:
Your volunteer shift will start at around 11am (TBC) and finish at around 7pm (TBC), giving you plenty time to enjoy the big acts of the day.

Please note once on site at the Roundhay Festival you are required to be on volunteer shift where and when required by the Music Festival promoter and Festaff management. You will be advised as far as possible of volunteer shift patterns, etc. in advance of the music festival but we cannot be 100% accurate of all that is required until on site. Please bear this in mind.
You must plan and make your own way to and from the event.
