Work at Oktoberfest Festival as a volunteer in Germany – positions
– The Beginning: You will be setting up tents, blowing up mattresses, building bars, painting masterpieces during all kinds of weather. It’s the most important part of the festival!
– Check-in & Reception Desk: You guys will be the first point of contact with Stoke. You’ll be checking guests in, allocating them a tent, and making sure they find a tent runner.
– Welcome Crew & Tent Runners: everyone on-site will know your face and love you for the sangria/beer you will offer them when they arrive. You need to know where everything is at camp and the festival, information about buses, what’s for dinner, and most importantly where everyone is sleeping.
– Bar Heroes: Your job is to handle the Stoke bar and keep the booze chilled and flowing. This role is a non-stop late-night role; it’s really important to keep the beer flowing and the party going.
– Tent Turnover: You guys handle out dirty tents as a team and get them ready for the next set of campers. You typically get a sleep in, and if you get the job done, you’re finished before the party starts.
– Kitchen Party: You’ll create and serve some fantastic meals to our travelers (taste & presentation = a winning combo).
– The Guru Tent (Swag & Travel Desk): You’re the source of all information and merchandise for customers and staff. Know the answers for every question, and control bus sign-ups, breakfast tokens, party and Stoke trip tickets, and charging stations. You have a chance to make a commission on any ongoing trips you sell.
