It’s time to plan your summer with the first release of the 2025 Event Calendar! The calendar is now LIVE and you can begin to make your applications but as always there’s a few things to consider first…
We are still in the process of bringing new and exciting events to the calendar while also confirming some of the regular festivals you’re used to seeing there. Though we encourage you to keep checking back for updates, don’t let this prevent you from making your applications now. The admin team is ready to help if you need to make any changes along the way.
As usual, there’ll be a two week period to allow applications to come in before we start assigning positions. This is to give you a chance to make any changes to your applications, for the office to chase up those incomplete profiles and for you to get in contact with us with any queries you might have. We’ll begin to assign positions on the 3rd of March.
Now for the hot topic… GLASTONBURY. Glastonbury is as always a much anticipated festival on our calendar. Those of you who’ve worked with us before know that Glastonbury applications do not open on launch day, but two weeks later.
Due to the popularity of Glastonbury festival we ask that all applicants have worked at least one event with DC Site Services within the past year to be considered. This two-week window mentioned above gives any new applicants an equal chance of being assigned a position by making a few pre-Glastonbury applications. You are of course still welcome to make your application purely for Glastonbury, but this will make a big difference in how your application is prioritised!
To recap, Glastonbury applications will open the 3rd of March, we’ll then start to allocate positions a further two weeks later on the 17th of March.
The event calendar will also provide you with useful information such as a link to Google Maps so you can plan your transport, it’ll link you to the website for the event in question, and it will tell you whether there is camping available or if it’s an event you’ll need to travel in and out for. In the meantime, we encourage you to have a look at our FAQ’s for any general queries you may have, otherwise our admin team is happy to help.
Happy planning and we look forward to seeing you this summer!
