Become a Festival Volunteer

Become a 2025 Festival Volunteer

Being a Newark Book Festival volunteer is not only a lot of fun it's a brilliant way to gain experience for your CV, give back to your community, support art and culture in Newark and meet new people.

We require Festival volunteers all year round, to help behind the scenes, with marketing the festival and to help at events in the run up to the festival, and the festival dates itself.

Applications aren't quite open yet for 2025. Leave your details below and we will add you to the list to let you know when they're open again!
