Background
At Roskilde Festival, returning containers for deposit (pant) means much more than just returning bottles and receiving money. Pant is, among other things, an essential part of the green transition. Did you know that on the festival grounds, we also have deposits on shot tubes because the plastic quality is so good that it makes sense to reuse them?
Task
Pant booths are known as areas where sorting and cleaning up take place, while languages and cultures mix because pant is also a meeting place for many different people.
As a pant booth, you are responsible for:
- Receiving deposits
- Counting and sorting deposits
- Paying out deposit values
- Assisting in returning deposits to the recycling system
As an association, you can choose between a short commitment, where your volunteers engage for 24 hours during the festival, or a standard commitment, where volunteers participate for 32 hours. You should provide between 40 to 150 volunteers, depending on what is feasible for your association. The volunteers you involve in the task must be at least 15 years old.
We offer:
In addition to earning money for your association and providing your volunteers with festival access (which you can read more about here), you will also have the opportunity to be a part of the future development of the deposit area at Roskilde Festival. You will work closely with excellent people from Team Pant and other deposit associations, and we will ensure that you are well-instructed for the task.
You will be allocated your own backstage area at the festival and will be invited to social and professional events throughout the year with the rest of the large volunteer community behind Roskilde Festival.
Your association's competencies:
We are looking for associations ready to try new things and be part of a multi-year collaboration. We envision that you are an association with a large network and close relationships with your members. You don't need to be familiar with the theme of deposits; we will teach you that. However, it is important that you have plenty of determination and drive.
Does this sound like something for you?
Then send an email to wienke.reimer@roskilde-festival.dk with a few lines about who you are and why you would like to participate. Of course, you are also welcome to reach out if you have further questions about the task. We enter into agreements with new associations on an ongoing basis and will take down the posting when all positions are filled.
We look forward to hearing from you!
