Bristol Encontro is back — and we’d love you on the team.
Join us for three unforgettable days celebrating the spirit of Brazilian drums, percussion, dance and song. We’re bringing together some of the best Bristol and UK Afro-Brazilian groups for a high-energy weekend of music, movement and community.
We're looking for friendly, enthusiastic team players, to be part of the event supporting us with welcoming artists and public, wrist banding, stewarding, artist liaison, merchandising, set up and take down.
When and where
Trinity Centre, BS2 0NW
Saturday 25 April and Sunday 26 April
Shifts available between 10am and 11pm each day
And for the first time, we also need support at our campsite, (Bath Road, BS30 6HX)
Help us make this unique, not-for-profit event happen — and in return you’ll get free entry to the event, time off during your shift to enjoy the bands, a food voucher for one of our wonderful traders, a drink from our friends at Bristol Beer Factory.
Application Deadline: Rolling applications - closing 18 March 2026.
