Hip Hop & House Dance Festival2.9. – 10.9.2023Salzburg & Hallein

With different events throughout the nine days, Flavourama’s mission is to connect people, share knowledge about the culture of Hip Hop and House Dance, give upcoming artists and performers the possibility to grow and to show their skills on stages and in theatre settings.  

With its 15th edition from the 2nd until the 10th of September 2023, the Flavourama Festival is looking for volunteers to join the team and help to make the festival an unforgettable experience. Based on our values, we are looking for open-minded people that want to join our Flavourama community, who are open to collaborate and are eager to learn from and with each other.  

You can participate in the following ways: project coordination, assembling and dismantling at different event locations, ticketing, artist care (of international guests), registering battle guests, working backstage, car shuttles, simple troubleshooting and being a Helping Hand wherever it’s needed. 

Please be aware that working at the festival can be a very intense experience that might require a lot of energy – please decide for yourself if you are ready for that.
We will of course ensure breaks as well as continuous guidance from the Flavourama team – moreso, within a team of volunteers, you are never alone. 

The Flavourama team seeks to build a community of volunteers and wants to give every person the opportunity to learn about the festival and get insights behind the scenes. Therefore, a community day will be organized, on which volunteers get to know each other as well as the Flavourama team members.
The board members of the festival – Olivia, Farah and Elena – will share their knowledge of organizing events in the dance field, answer your personal questions and inspire you with their work ethic.  

Additionally on that day, you will have free access to watch the performance of our “Creative Retreat” participants and you are invited to join the Flavourama Retreat Closing Party in Hallein! 

Furthermore, as a volunteer, you get free tickets to Flavourama events – depending on your work avilability, as well as a Flavourama Goodie Bag.
