I worked as a steward the first day doing Covid checks and wristbanding, then Saturday night in the arena. I travelled all the way from Glasgow to the festival with two of my friends it was good fun and well worth it! Apart from the weather ripping holes and creating puddles in our tent we had such an amazing time. Two of us study Events and Festival Management at University and we were really grateful for the opportunity to volunteer with Hotbox. We are volunteering again with Hotbox at the Leeds Festival and we are looking forward to it. We're also bringing a better tent!
