Volunteer!

To pull off our little carnival in the streets, it takes the spirit and hands of a bunch of volunteers. Got time to step up and help out on the day? Great! Our event team looks after everyone that volunteers by providing meals and drinks on the day they volunteer, and of course guidance for the tasks they undertake. It takes a village to create Streetopia – and many hands on deck to make it run smoothly, so if you’re in the area, and are interested in volunteering, we’d love to have you on board. Here are some of the areas we could use your hands:

 

Community Rangers

These are community mediators – they’re not the cops – and the kind of person that’s ideal is part lifeguard, part mediator, part troubadour! If you think you fit that description, sign up and prepare to have a great day meeting all sorts of people:

Set up & Strike

This is the team that assist in erecting and placing event infrastructure. It’s a great way to get to meet the people involved in creating some of the magic of the event, and the work is done on the Friday evening before our event day, and then again on the Saturday evening to pack it down and put it away.

Leave No Trace

As our event team seeks to leave the entire event area in a better state than we found it, we’re looking for eagle-eyed volunteers who can assist with identifying MOOP (matter out of place) and ensuring it’s managed so that the residents of Obs wake up to a spotless neighbourhood after the day’s done. If you’re interested in helping in this area, here’s where you can sign up for shifts:
