We're the mighty volunteer clean-up crew at Glastonbury Festival.

Collecting, clearing and sorting our way towards a cleaner, greener Festival.

Meet the crew

We're a crew of over 2,400 volunteers, ranging from 18 to long-retired.

Some are joining us for the first time, while others have been coming back for more than 20 festivals!

Around 800 volunteers join through our charity partners, helping raise valuable funds for good causes along the way.

What we do

From the fields to the Recycling Centre, our crews work together to keep Glastonbury clean, green and moving.

Our goal is simple:

Collect, sort and recycle as much waste as possible, doing our bit to help Glastonbury Festival achieve its sustainability goals.

Hard work. Big rewards.

We can't lie - it can be smelly at times!

But the work is incredibly rewarding, oddly fun and a brilliant way to be part of the Festival we love.

Over 99% of our volunteers honour their agreement and receive their security payment back, with most returning year after year.

Together, we’re proud to support the Festival and raise funds for good causes.
