2016 festival volunteer deposit returns are on their way!

Wednesday, September 28, 2016

We're pleased to be able to let you know that deposit returns for everyone who volunteered with Hotbox Events at the 2016 Latitude Festival, V Festival South, Reading Festival and Leeds Festival are now on their way!

As ever we've worked tirelessly to get the deposit returns out as early as possible in 2016 and although we say October, just in case of any delays, we're happy to have been able to send them back in September again this year and a few days earlier than last year!

If you're unsure as to the work involved and why it takes a few weeks for deposit returns to be processed; you can find further information about the deposit return process in our Deposits, Tickets and Wages FAQs.

We expect cheques to start dropping through letterboxes in the next few days but please do give them a little time to make their way to you.

International volunteer deposit returns are processed via PayPal. If you're an international volunteer you'll be receiving a separate email from us in the next day or so to confirm your PayPal account details. If you don't have a PayPal account it's very easy to set one up.

Please remember that there are some standard deductions from deposit returns which depend on how you paid your deposit and if you purchased any meal vouchers or ponchos at the festivals. The standard deductions are:

  • £8.00 card processing fee
  • £4.50 per meal voucher
  • £1.00 per poncho

Again a huge thank you for volunteering with Hotbox Events in 2016 and we hope to see you all back volunteering at festivals again in 2017!
