Volunteer’s registration

Join our team !

La Nature cannot take shape and run properly without the help of a community-based energy. Led by a non-profit association, we recruit volunteer angels every year who will allow us to welcome the public in the best of comfort, but also to develop a friendly atmosphere, and a determined cooperative spirit.

Registration for construction / decoration / build-up / breakdownRegistration for festival shifts (from June, Thu. 23 to Mon. 27)

Registration will be open until the end of May, except if we find all the needed workforce before that. So don’t wait too long!

How can I get involved ?

Long term – Deco Team

You like the visual universe in which La Nature Festival immerses you and you are curious to discover what happens behind the deco scenes?
Your creativity is boundless, you have an eye for detail, you juggle with tools, you’re not afraid to get your shirt dirty, or you have a great sense of humour? Come here!
One criterion is essential: you must be available for a minimum of 6 days during the build-up/breakdown period.
Guided by the collective sØma, you will adorn the event and help create an immersive atmosphere. On the program: a plethora of things. From the handcrafting of the signs to the construction of structures, you will help lay out the different spaces of the festival.
You can also join the collective earlier during the year.

Long term – Construction Team

Do you want to participate in the construction of the different stages of the festival, give the forest of the Baraque de Fraiture even more relief, and dismantle pallets and give them a new life? You’ve come to the right place!
Since its establishment in the Ardennes, La Nature festival has been looking for new horizons. Thanks to a close collaboration with the municipality of Vielsalm and the Station de la Haute Ardenne, it is now possible for us to develop constructions that are made to stay, supervised by members of the festival team you will have the opportunity to give them shape!
Are you used to working with tools, do you know how to follow a plan, or are you just super motivated to learn in this field? Register here!

Short term – General Build-up

Join our team a few days before and/or after the festival and participate in the general build-up. Your jobs will range from setting up barriers to helping the technical crews, giving a hand to the construction and/or decoration team, installing the signage, etc. The crew manager will most certainly dispatch you to a different job each day.

Festival Shifts

Join our team during the festival days, from Thursday to Monday. The shifts range from campsite welcome to access control, entrances, eco-team, sanitary access and artist catering. You will be helping out at the very heart of the festival organization and getting some insights into the overall challenges.

Quick FAQ

When will you know that your demand to volunteer is accepted?

When you have fully registered and completed your profile, you will be invited to make your preference choices from all the available time slots.

Then Sandrine will contact you as soon as possible. This can take up to 3 weeks, as we contact everyone personally. No worry if that takes a bit of time, we will contact you very soon.

What will I get from helping you ?

When all your missions will be fulfilled successfully, we’ll refund your ticket/deposit at 100%. In addition, you will also collect cashless credits that can be used in all bars, food trucks and other activities. For every day/shift you participate, you will receive 15€ in credits. In case you participate in the build-up and breakdown of the festival, you’ll also get 3 meals a day.

What should I do in case of cancellation?

Please let us know on time, so we can find a solution to replace you. Of course, we hope this doesn’t happen, but if it does, please send an email to crew@lanature.be
