Leeds Met works in partnership with Festival Republic, providing brilliant opportunities for students, staff and alumni to volunteer at Latitude and Leeds festivals.


Find out more about this partnership and others on the Leeds Met website.


Over 200 Leeds Met volunteers went to Latitude and Leeds festivals last summer. Read about their adventures below.

Less work, more play

Our playwork team are ace. They've been getting up early every morning to entertain the kids in the family campsite before the main arena opens. Activities are led by the children - they choose what they want to play with and how they want to play. There are musical instruments, a ball pit, pogo sticks and a massive crash mat to jump on to, as well as loads of other things to be creative with. Families love it as it keeps everyone happy and entertained during the festival. As well as the morning activities there are sessions throughout the day and early evening. The playwork team from Leeds Met, led by Mike Wragg, came to Latitude last year and were so popular that they were asked to extend their hours this year.
