Travail
We need your help to build the festival and take it down, therefore you will work before and after the festival. The festival takes place from 27th July to 29th July and you will have the days off to enjoy it. You will also have a day off before the festival begins in between the workdays.
You will be part of a team of volunteers building the festival. It is manual work, and it will be an advantage with knowledge of tools, but it is not required.
Your tasks will change from day to day, where you might help set up a stage one day, build a bar the next or carry fences. A team leader will instruct you on what to do.
All volunteers on our production team meet every morning and work until the afternoon (with breaks in between). Breakfast, lunch, and dinner are provided on workdays. During the festival, you will be given three food vouchers each day, which you can use in our main food stand to get a meal.
Our production team is unlike any other team at Alive Festival. Volunteers work together for a longer period and the spirit when building the festival is very cheery and exciting among the hard work. Many of our volunteers are returning each year to help set up the festival and they know everything there is to know about Thisted and Alive Festival.
Logement & nourriture
Sleeping facilities:
The volunteers can sleep in tents or sleep indoors in a scout cabin close to the festival site. Every morning you will meet with the other volunteers at Plantagehuset located right next to the festival site. Plantagehusets lower floor is used as a gathering point for all volunteers on the days before, during, and after the festival. In the evening, when all the work is done, you can stay in the common room in Plantagehuset if you want to play a board game or just relax for a bit.
Volunteers bring their own sleeping mats and sleeping bags. Volunteers also need to bring their own tents for those who want to have the full festival experience. If it’s any problem we can help the volunteers to buy these items in the city of Thisted.
Kitchen AND bathroom facilities:
We have a common room in Plantagehuset where breakfast, lunch, and dinner are served during the days you are working. All the food we provide and serve is vegetarian. Our kitchen facilities will be preoccupied as soon as we start building the festival, so it will not be possible to cook for yourselves. During the festival, the food will not be served, though you will receive food vouchers you can use instead.
There will be toilets installed at the camping area and bath facilities. There are also toilets in the scout cabin and Plantagehuset and it is possible to use the bath in a building known as URT.
Emplacement & temps libre
Alive Festival is located in Thisted, a small town in an area known for its national park essential for long walks and exploration. Not far from Thisted you will find the west coast also known as Cold Hawaii, famous for its surfing facilities.
The beach, wild nature and charming surrounding towns are essential for summer vacations.
In the evening, when all the work is done, you can also stay in the common room on the festival site, if you want to play a board game or just relax for a bit.
Your Work Camp leaders will help you and the group with organising activities in your spare time. It is free to enjoy the beautiful nature of Thisted, but some activities might require an extra charge. The host will not cover additional charges.
