MAGICAL MARQUEE (ROMAINMETIER-ENVY VD)

📝 Detailed information

🏢 About the local organisation

Event dedicated to families, nature, street and theatre arts, music, dance and good locally-sourced foods...2009 Jan Reymond constructed a beautiful traditionally made marquee using his woodworking skills, to host a small gathering. People were so impressed that the event was repeated, year after year since then. The "Magical marque" is a joyous melting pot and meeting place: between its audience and artists from here and elsewhere, between different generations united by the various shows, and also between the various workers that inhabit the event.It is a unique opportunity for intercommunity gatherings around artistic creations and gastronomy, where everything is set up to encourage and allow exchanges, in a timeless atmosphere that catalyzes creativity and sharing.

💼 What the programme involves

Dozens of volunteers start working weeks in advance to transform the edge of the medieval village of RomainmEtier into a magical village to accommodate the few thousand visitors who will flock to the premises.The type of work that the SCI volunteers would be involved in is mainly around building and taking down the various venue structures: various tents, tables, grounds covering, toilets, restaurant area, trailers, amongst other infrastructures. This entails mainly lifting and handling. Be aware that the workload might be unpredictable, sometimes you might have less work to do and still have to be around and available to intervene when needed.
