Our Volunteers

Our volunteers are a crucial part of our haunting affair, and we’re always looking for fresh blood. So embrace the shadows and join our spectral crew to help weave our dark enchantment.

Why Volunteer?

Dublin City Council Bram Stoker Festival’s volunteer team are involved in all aspects of the festival; behind the scenes, ushering at our venues or acting as ambassadors at our events. There’s something for everyone keen to get involved and see what it takes to bring a festival of this size to life.

Volunteer Confirmation & Briefing

To confirm your place on the team, all volunteers are required to attend an online briefing. At this briefing you will receive information about the festival, health & safety procedures and have the opportunity to ask any questions you may have about volunteering at the festival.

This will happen closer to the event–the exact date, time and meeting link will be sent in advance.

 

Equal Opportunities & Code of Conduct

Dublin City Council Bram Stoker Festival operates an equal opportunities policy. The festival does not tolerate any form of discrimination, bullying or abuse and will protect its volunteers from any such forms of behaviour.
