Free Music Festival 1

CODE: SJ12

Work:

You will collaborate with the organization's volunteers in the preparation and setup of the festival (site barricading, parking, etc.). Your tasks will involve organizing the park to make it attractive for the public and assisting volunteers in the logistical management of the event. After the festival, you will help clean and tidy up the site in a friendly and supportive atmosphere. Additionally, you will participate in activities promoting interculturality and sustainable development.

Accomodation and food

You will sleep in a dormitory in the big International Maison des Bateleurs, where you will share daily life with international volunteers welcomed under the ESC Program (European Solidarity Corps). Located a few hundred meters from the festival in Montendre, the house provides all necessary amenities: showers, kitchen, garden, bamboo grove, etc. A vehicle will be at your disposal for transportation to the workshop site and for exploring the region. Breakfast and meals will be provided (you will have a food budget managed and communicated by the facilitators throughout the workcamp). Meals, prepared on a rotating schedule with you and the international volunteers, will respect environmental values, local resources, and the dietary preferences of each individual (including hot and cold dishes, as well as vegetarian and vegan options). For the first week, you will have lunch at the Maison des Bateleurs, and for the second and third week, you will have lunch with the festival team (on-site catering with various menus, including vegetarian and vegan options).

Location and leisure

Located at the crossroads of several charming villages in southern Saintonge, you can fully enjoy the local heritage. Outside of work hours, you will participate in summer activities, such as music festivals, night markets, and visits to local producers with tastings of their products. City outings to La Rochelle, Rochefort, or Angoulême and a day at the ocean may also be organized. Cognac and St-Emilion, emblematic cities of the French vineyard, are also nearby!
