Volunteers

Do you see yourself setting up, packing down, pouring beers, guiding audiences, washing dishes, scanning tickets, making signs, or perfecting your barista skills? If you haven’t volunteered at Oerol before… read on. On this page you’ll discover everything you want to know about being a volunteer at Oerol.

Update: You can sign up as a volunteer again for specific roles where vacancies are still available. Completing the form does not guarantee that you will be selected. Unfortunately, it is possible that we may have to place you on the waiting list. You will receive an update regarding this as soon as possible.

Would you like to stay up to date and not miss any news? Then sign up for the Volunteers Newsletter. You can do this in the ‘Mijn Oerol‘ environment once you are logged in.
