Volunteer with us

Big Church Festival wouldn’t happen without our amazing team of volunteers and we’d love you to be one of them!

Whether you’re coming solo or bringing a mate, volunteering is a brilliant way to be part of something bigger, make memories and have a blast along the way.

You’ll get stuck into the behind-the-scenes buzz that makes Big Church so special, with plenty of time off to soak up the music, worship and enjoy the festival vibes.

From ticketing to crafts, hosting to accessibility support, whatever your skills or interests, we’ve got a spot for you.
