Volunteering at Henley Literary Festival:
The 2025 Festival takes place from Friday 3rd October to Sunday 12th October at venues across Henley-on-Thames, with 120 talks, Q&As, workshops and performances for adults and children.

Volunteers are a vital part of our Festival, assisting venue managers to ensure the smooth-running of the events. Days are divided into morning and evening sessions. During these shifts you may be required to help with any of the following: welcoming audience members, assisting the audience with any queries, assisting with book signing queues, laying out sponsor materials, and assisting the venue manager with any other tasks.

When volunteers do not have a shift, they are welcome to use their badge to sit in on any events (that are not sold out).

Dress code:
The dress code for all volunteers is smart casual. You will be provided with a lanyard and volunteer t-shirt which should be worn at all times during shifts. Please state which size t-shirt you require on the sign-up form.

Please contact info@henleyliteraryfestival.co.uk if you require help or further information.
