Which volunteer position suits you best? Will you be a member of the public, a box office employee or are you an all-rounder who can be used anywhere?

VOLUNTEER POSITIONS
Audience staff
As an audience guide, you are the business card of the festival. You are the first point of contact for the festival audience. You control the entrance tickets and ensure a good flow of visitors. You work at different locations in the city. Audience guides are representative, friendly, hospitable, enthusiastic and independent. Does that sound like you? Then you are probably our audience attendant!
Cashier & information desk Besides selling tickets for the shows, in this position you are responsible for providing information and good tips about the shows. You will have a lot of contact with the audience and work with a fun team. You will work from the festival pavilion at the market square or in the heart of the festival, the Rietveld Theater.
Production assistant
In this position you will support the organization with the design of the festival and make sure everything is ready for visitors and artists. If you like to roll up your sleeves, then sign up as a production assistant. You will help with the construction and dismantling of the festival, putting up signs so that everyone knows about the Delft Fringe Festival, and at which locations there are performances. When everything is set up and the festival has started, you'll be the production assistant: you'll bring flyers or benches from a to b, locations need to be converted and so on.
All-round staff member This is our most varied position. You are the right hand of the volunteer coordinator and production manager. Ready to jump in where needed and you have knowledge of all positions. You can be assigned to all positions described above. Are you flexible, do you enjoy doing different tasks and are you also hospitable and like to get things done? Then you are our dream all-round employee!
Working hours
A festival day usually begins at 11:30 am and ends at 11:00 pm (2:00 am on weekends). All tasks are divided into shifts. You will work an average of 5 hours per shift. The shifts will be assigned shortly before the festival and the volunteers will be informed by email. Of course, we will take your wishes into account as far as possible.
