All in all had a fab weekend volunteering at V Fest for the first time last weekend. Rocked up solo not really sure what to expect. All the other volunteers were nice, laid back and welcoming for a chat with many others also volunteering solo! This relieved initial nerves and I then began to look forward to the eventful festival weekend to come!!
Pleasantly surprised about the staff camping welfare; Hotbox having there owned fenced off staff area from the rest of the festival staff made it less overwhelming and made it feel a bit more homely.
Appreciated the marquee in the morning to sit and have breakfast; made it feel more civilised rather than the typical rugged festival camping life. The free tea, coffee and hot chocolate was appreciated;
An excellent festival weekend of music, made some lovely new friends for the weekend and I would 100% do it again!
Thanks again hotbox events team for a brilliant weekend!
