Volunteers
Adelaide Festival’s ongoing success is in large part due to decades of extraordinary support from our wonderful community of volunteers.
Applications to get involved as a volunteer for 2026 will open shortly. Check back to this page for information on how to apply.
Please note: Involvement in our volunteer team is subject to meeting our compliance requirements, which may vary dependent on the role. As we receive more applications than places available in our team, places are not guaranteed.
Volunteer communication will occur through the Be Collective portal so please look out for emails from this sender in your inbox.
The volunteer database of Adelaide Festival is managed by the South Australian Festival Volunteer Network (FVN), an independent, not-for-profit service connecting volunteers to festivals and events in South Australia. Facilitated by Festival City Adelaide, South Australia’s peak body for festivals and events, the FVN aims to support and enhance the quality of experience for both volunteers and participating festivals in their volunteerism journey. The FVN utilises the online Volunteer Management Platform Be Collective which provides a centralised online network of volunteers for festivals and events across South Australia, promotes a sense of community, a user-friendly experience, and a smooth transition for those volunteering across multiple festivals.
