Na Fir Bolg! A solidarity and alternative festival

CODE: BE-SCI W12.10

Work:

Hard manual work. During the build-up, volunteers will provide logistical help: installing water and electricity systems, installing fences around the festival grounds, stages, backstage, kitchen, bar, etc. After these tasks are completed, volunteers will help with putting the final touches to the festival: decoration, attaching posters…
During the festival volunteers will be completely free of any work in order to attend the concerts and enjoy the festival life! After the festival has been concluded (i.e. Monday July 8th), volunteers will assist in dismantling and cleaning the festival ground. After concluding the clean-up (typically 2, maximum 3 days), the remainder of the camp will be devoted to cultural visits in the region and to some cities in Belgium.

Accommodation and food

Volunteers will be accommodated in a building located next to the festival. There will be a cooking team who will cook for all the volunteers.
Volunteers will need to bring mattress and a sleeping bag and will be sleeping on floor level. There will be bicycles provided in order for them to move around.

Location and leisure

Vorselaar, Province of Antwerp, Flanders, Belgium (https://www.nafirbolg.be/en/info/locatie)

On some days the working hours could be more than expected, but their amount should not exceed 8 hours per day.

Requirements: This camp is for all the volunteers wishing to discover the organization of a solidarity festival and who are not afraid of hard manual work. During the installation and dismantling days, the volunteers will be working a bit longer than the other days.
