This job entails scanning QR codes for online tickets, taking tickets for onsite tickets, explaining how to use the online map/schedule, and stamping guests’ hands for re-entry.

Please keep in mind that the weights, stones, hammers, and cabers are very heavy. You need to be very alert on the field. NO CELL PHONES ON THE FIELD OR YOUNG CHILDREN (15& up only).

This position assists guests with purchasing merchandise from the festival. Merchandise includes t-shirts, pint glasses, Welsh cakes, and more.

Using their own cameras, volunteers take photos and/or videos of the festival from their perspective. Volunteers provide photos to Highland Games for future marketing and online galleries.

There is much work to get a festival set up and torn down. We erect/put away tents, distribute/pick tables, unload/load supplies, and move around trash bins. The setup/teardown is hard work - but you get to attend the festival all weekend and enjoy the fruits of your labor.
