Calling all book lovers!
Interested in taking part in one of London’s biggest literary events?
Why not become a volunteer at Wimbledon BookFest?
Our 50-strong crew of BookFest volunteers help our small team make this big 10-day event happen!
As we begin a series of author talks and workshops at Merton libraries across the borough there are opportunities to be part of the stewarding team at these events.
And occasionally there are opportunities for students to do work experience at our Festival Office too.
What volunteering looks like
Work includes checking event tickets, stewarding families to their seats, assisting with book sales, helping authors with book signings or even being part of a student press team.
And there’s more…
Five brilliant benefits of being a BookFest volunteer
- Find out more about book trends and the publishing industry first-hand
- Get to listen to talks from authors you love for free
- Discover new writers
- Great experience to add to your CV
- Get a bespoke BookFest t-shirt for your wardrobe
We particularly encourage 6th formers from local schools and students from the University of Roehampton to join us and get involved – but volunteer opportunities are open to everyone.
