Volunteer for Digital Body Festival

The Digital Body Festival is a new festival celebrating the intersection of the moving body and digital technology that will take place 15–17 November 2024 in Hackney Wick, East London.

We’re recruiting for volunteers to support the festival at Hackney Bridge over the three days, helping visitors and working with festival staff in the event’s five main areas: the interactive exhibitions, the screen-based gallery, the prototypes and workshops lab, the talks and panels area, and the performance programme.

As a Digital Body Festival volunteer you will get:

  • Festival Pass for all three days of the festival
  • Tickets to all festival performances (pre-booking essential, limited tickets available)
  • Local travel costs covered
  • Refreshments during your volunteering shift

If you would like to volunteer for the Digital Body Festival or would like more information, please contact Emi at [email protected]
