As a Festival Steward, you will be responsible for assisting visitors, supporting crowd flow, managing access, and responding to issues in a calm and professional way. You will act as a key point of contact between guests, event organisers, and helping to ensure that the festival runs safely and enjoyably for everyone.
You will work closely with our operations and safety teams, covering a range of responsibilities from guest support and crowd management to incident response and site monitoring. This is a hands-on, people-focused role that suits those who enjoy working in lively environments and can keep a level head when things get busy.
This role is a great way to gain valuable event experience while being an integral part of what makes Core Element work. Your contribution will be visible, meaningful, and appreciated!

As part of the Bar Crew, you will be at the heart of the festival’s social atmosphere, ensuring our guests enjoy a smooth and welcoming bar experience. You will assist in serving drinks efficiently, maintaining a clean and organised bar area, and contributing to the overall energy and excitement of the event! This role requires a balance of speed, attention to detail, and great customer service skills, as you’ll be working in a fast-paced and dynamic environment.
You will ideally need to have prior bar experience to ensure you’re fully equipped to handle your responsibilities confidently. Whether it’s pouring drinks, handling card transactions, or keeping the bar running smoothly, you’ll develop valuable skills while being an essential part of the festival’s success.

As part of the Festival-Ops team, you will act as the central operational hub of the festival, supporting the management team in maintaining oversight of site-wide activity, communications, and unassigned operational matters. Festival-Ops functions as the coordination and information centre for issues that do not sit clearly within a single department, ensuring nothing falls through the gaps and that decisions are made quickly, consistently, and in line with festival policies.
You will monitor communications, manage lost property, handle policy queries, assess developing situations, and coordinate responses where required. You will act as the central intelligence and support point for management, security, stewards, and other departments.
This role is well suited to individuals with event operations experience who are calm decision-makers and effective communicators. You will sit at the heart of the festival, ensuring information flows correctly and that appropriate resources are deployed when necessary.

You will portray original characters drawn from the Core Element lore, interacting with guests in ways that are entertaining, welcoming, and true to the creative vision of the event. This is not a rigid or scripted role. Much of what makes it work is your instinct, your imagination, and your ability to read a moment and respond to it.
This role is more flexible than most crew positions. You will have performance windows and guidance, but within that there is real creative freedom. It is a brilliant fit for actors, role-players, and improvisers who love audience interaction and want to be part of something genuinely unusual and fun.

As Videographer, you will be responsible for capturing high-quality video content that documents, promotes, and showcases the festival experience.

You will work closely with the media and events teams to ensure that all video content reflects the festival's brand, values, and creative vision. Strong technical ability, a good eye for storytelling, and sound professional judgement are all essential in this role.
This is a role that combines creative freedom with real responsibility. You will be filming content that represents Core Element publicly, and the quality and care you bring to that will be felt long after the event is over.
