Ensemble Festival 2025 – Festival Support Call-Out

Are you interested in learning about how arts festivals are run, and do you want to be part of a team that makes one happen on the day?

We are offering a free one-day training session on festival stewarding and support, followed by a paid role working on this year’s Ensemble Festival. You will learn about the key roles that make a festival work, talk through the Ensemble Festival programme, and learn new skills that we will use when working together on the day to support artists, deal with the public and collect audience data for future events.

The training will take place on Wednesday 23rd July between 11:00 – 16:30 at 1 Expressway London (1 Dock Rd, London E16 1AH) with a free lunch provided. The festival dates are 26th and 27th of July.

You will need to be available for the training and at least one of the event days. Shifts are maximum 5.5 hours long, and you will be paid £13.85 per hour.
