🏢 About the local organisation
Dive into world cultures! The festival Cultures du Monde is a unique place to meet more than 400 dancers and singers, and get involved in the organisation of a big festival in close cooperation with the local volunteers. We have been cooperating with the association organising the festival for several years and it is always a successful workcamp! The festival lasts 10 days. For more info: www.cultures-traditions.org
💼 What the programme involves
You will be fully integrated in the team of local volunteers. Before the festival, you will participate to create the decorations and set up the place. During the festival, you will join the teams in charge of welcoming the public and hosting the artists, and in charge of catering and refreshment stalls. After the festival, you will help to pack up and clean the site. Important: during the festival, work is very intense, days are long and nights are short... but you will have a warm welcome, the atmosphere is very friendly!
🏠 Accommodation on site
Accommodation is still to be conifrmed but ill probably be in tents, (2 persons per tent) on the town's camping. Volunteers will manage the tasks of daily life in teams (shopping, cooking, cleaning). During the festival, you will eat with the organisers!
📍 About the location
Gannat is a small town 45km North from Clermont-Ferrand. The region is rich with historical villages, and beautiful natural areas to visit!
