Volunteer at the Festival of Play

We're looking for students to volunteer at the Festival of Play

Brought to you by Digital Schoolhouse in association with Electronic Arts, Festival of Play is taking place on Wednesday 13 July at HOST Salford. It's a brand-new creative careers and Computing conference for school pupils aged 8-15, showcasing the breadth and depth of roles available in the UK games industry. It will be a fun event packed with workshops, talks, activities, live music and games.

Sign up

As a volunteer, you will:

  • Help attendees navigate the event
  • Answer simple questions about the event (where things are and when)
  • Talk to the attendees about your studies and career ambitions

Details:

  • You will be needed from 08:00 until 16:30
  • Travel expenses and lunch provided
  • You must be at least 18 years old to volunteer

At the Festival of Play, school pupils will engage with technology and learn about careers in the video games and creative digital sectors. You will play a valuable role in advocating for the study of STEAM subjects and inspiring children to pursue a path in games. 

You will also get to enjoy everything that the Festival has to offer for yourself – including networking with the games companies and professionals involved in the event.
