Join us! Become a Fringe Volunteer

Are you looking to become an arts volunteer or festival volunteer in South Australia? Well look no further - Adelaide Fringe volunteers are an incredibly important part of our festival and we’d love for you to join us!

Both leading up to and during Adelaide Fringe season, our 100 plus cohort of incredible and diverse volunteers work closely with the Fringe team to deliver key projects. These include helping at unique Fringe events, assisting people in navigating the program, and supporting all Fringe-goers in having the best time possible.
