About the AWESOME Festival

The AWESOME Festival is an annual celebration of arts and culture for children aged 0 - 12 and their families, bringing together performances, workshops, exhibitions, activities and events that inspire imagination and creativity.

In 2026, the AWESOME Festival will be delivered across two hubs: Perth Cultural Centre and Subiaco Arts Centre, with full-day, morning and afternoon shifts available from Tuesday 29 September - Saturday 3 October.

Your Role

Festival Assistants are the driving force behind the AWESOME Festival! Every shift brings something new and exciting, with a variety of hands-on tasks.

You might,

  • Work alongside professional WA artists;
  • Supervise exhibition spaces and installations;
  • Assist with front of house and provide excellent customer service;
  • Distribute survey cards and programs;
  • Dress up as one of our Festival Mascots!

We’re looking for enthusiastic, adaptable volunteers who thrive in a vibrant festival environment and love engaging with the public in a positive way.

We aim to make our volunteer experience fun, rewarding, insightful and educational. Without our volunteers, the AWESOME Festival wouldn't be possible!
