Volunteer at Kelburn

Kelburn Garden Party Volunteers

Kelburn wouldn’t be possible without our dedicated army of volunteers. Every area of festival production, from decor and build to food and car parking requires volunteer help in order for the event to function. Volunteers get alot out of being involved at Kelburn, can learn new skills and make new friends. They get fed and watered, and enjoy the experience of being part of one of Scotland’s most creative festivals.
