The Narooma Oyster Festival is seeking volunteers for our next flagship event on May 2 – 3, 2025.
The two day festival is an established and fun event that showcases our vibrant community and region. Each year more than 100 volunteers generously give their time, from experienced locals to students looking for experience.
If you would like to volunteer throughout the year with the event planning team, please email us at volunteer@naroomaoysterfestival.com
Bump-in Thursday & Friday
Labourers and handymen – Spare a few hours to help set up marquees, bars, hang signs around town and the festival site and delivering boxes to marquees.

Key areas will include setting up and supporting the information and merchandise marquee, stocking the oyster and liquor bar, people to wipe over furniture, platters, and glassware, help unpack boxes in readiness for use, help set up decoration and theming and fetching random items, sometimes from off-site.
Community Liaison – Folks who love chatting to people. Answer enquiries about the program, the festival layout and the wider area.
