STRP Volunteers

Each year, hundreds of volunteers do various jobs to help make the STRP Festival possible.

For STRP Festival 2011, we have a sufficient number of applicants and subscription is closed. Although we are still in the process of drawing up the schedules at the moment, we can pronounce that people who subscribed from half October, unfortunately cannot be scheduled.
If you want to make sure you do not miss out on STRP 2011, go ahead and buy a ticket!

What can you do at the STRP Festival?
We will take good care of you during the festival with food and drinks during your shifts. All volunteers receive a festival T-shirt and once the festival is over, we throw a big party for all of the volunteers as a way to express our appreciation. We arrange insurance for our volunteers to make sure that everyone has disability and accident coverage. You can indicate your preference(s) on the application form. We will do our best to match your wishes to our needs.

What do you get in return?
• 1 shift =                  free admission on 1 festival day + 5 drink tokens
• 2 shifts =                free admission on 2 festival days + 5 drink tokens
• 3 shifts =                free admission for the duration of the festival + 5 drink tokens
• 4 shifts or more =   free admission for the duration of the festival + 10 drink tokens for each shift worked

Unfortunately STRP can't provide the possibility to volunteers to get free admission for the concert of Matthew Herbert on November 18th in Klokgebouw and the performance of Hiroaki Umeda on November 21st in Parktheater Eindhoven.

For a couple of job functions there will be a volunteer fee available. In the document ‘Job descriptions’ next to the application form you can read which job functions have the additional volunteer fee.
