🏢 About the local organisation

offered a varied programme of well-known and
lesser-known artists since 2002. Every year it is an
alternative line-up, open to the world and based on
discovery. A programme that expresses cultural
diversity and deliberately goes against the tide
of monopolies, algorithms and the mainstream. It
takes place at Floreffe Abbey, located between
Charleroi and Namur in Belgium.
Z ! Association, organizer of the Esperanzah music
festival, aims to design and organize remarkable
sites, events or cultural and social activities.
💼 What the programme involves
Volunteers will be responsible for cleaning the
festival site. They will collect waste so visitors can
attend concerts in a welcoming and safe site. They
will also be assigned to physical tasks. They will have
to make festival-goers aware of the protection of
the environment. Volunteers will work from 9am to
midday and from 1pm to 5pm. Your job is to keep
the area clean and tidy. During the festival, the
volunteers are free to enjoy too! The work to be
done can be physical.
🏠 Accommodation on site
Volunteers will be accommodated in a dormitory.
Kitchen, shower and toilet will be available, but they
will share it with another group of volunteers. There
will be no washing machine. You will be asked to
bring a mattress and a sleeping bag. Do not forget
to bring working clothes as it can be rainy from time
to time.
Three meals are provided each day for volunteers.
Vegetarian volunteers will receive special meals.
Only during the festival and not during the off days.
