Redcar Town Centre
Between the Tides is a brand-new free festival of adventure and exploration, imagination and messiness for children, young people and their families.
Taking place across Redcar Town Centre, you’ll meet a cast of colourful characters such as friendly giants and petulant princesses, naughty nose thieves and proud sea captains. Watch as Redcar explodes into a fantastic spectacle where fairy tales become reality and your dreams take shape right here on our streets!
Get creative with one of our free workshops. Make a clay creature or a giant Lemon Top! Help our storytellers weave playful tales of wonder and discovery! Learn how to make a puppet laugh and a monster cry!
Volunteers like you are at the heart of everything we do. Your skills, experience and time help us achieve our wildest dreams.
What will you be doing? This dynamic and responsive role will involve working with the Between the Tides marketing team, supporting the team to engage audiences, and help tell the story of the festival. This role might involve taking photographs of performances and festival activity, creating social media posts, and speaking with performance and audience members about their experiences.
What's in it for you? You'll have fun, meet new people and be part of a team! You'll learn about event management, develop great customer service skills, discover new performers and artists and be at the heart of the Festival. You'll be helping others have a great time and make the festival a success. You'll gain confidence, learn about different career opportunities, connect with and support your community. And you'll enhance your CV.
