Leeds 2019 was my first time working for Hotbox, my first Leeds Festival and first time ever attending a festival of this size. I was apprehensive before we started but I need not have worried. The crew campsite was secure, spacious and sociable whilst the Hotbox managers and supervisors were some of the friendliest, most encouraging and supportive people I've ever worked with. I left the festival having made maybe 50 new friends, learnt a variety of new skills and most of all with an insatiable thirst to do it all again! I can't wait for 2020 Festival season, thank you everyone!
