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.

So how do you get involved?

Our volunteers are a mixture of students, staff and alumni from Leeds Met. We also collaborate with external performers and playworkers, and take volunteers from our partner colleges.

The recruitment process all started in March, when we advertised our available positions. Since then, we've been reading application forms, meeting potential volunteers, and working hard to fit the right people into the right roles. A festival volunteering experience with Leeds Met is a great chance for our students, staff and alumni to use the skills gained in their studies and/or work, and build on these in a real world festival setting. Plus they get to meet new people, watch some bands and generally have a lovely time.

Leeds Met has been working in partnership with Festival Republic since 2007. The University has partnerships and links with a number of cultural organisations in Leeds and beyond, providing lots of opportunities to broaden students' horizons and enhance their university experience.
