Stef Smith’s story
Stef Smith in her TikTok video talks about the privileges that Glastonbury workers have: from flexible hours, to free food to access to several areas not reserved for the general public. In the post, the woman says: “Basically I help with serving food, helping out in the kitchen and things like that. The shifts are very flexible and therefore comfortable. When I work, I have one meal a day included in the hours, I have access to the campsite where the artists stay, I can go to all the local bars and I know all the shortcuts that get you from one place to another in a very short time. I also have access that is much better than those of normal campsites. The bathrooms are very clean. These are simple things but really precious in a context like this where you are away from home for several days”.

Stef’s “pay”
Stef, as already explained before, is a volunteer and therefore does not have a real salary, however, she benefits from various benefits from this point of view. The girl explained on TikTok: «In exchange for my work, I enjoy the Festival because I finish my shift at 9pm and then I’m free to go and listen to the music. I was really lucky to find this volunteer job because I had tried to get tickets some time ago and had never succeeded. It was the lady who owns this company who saw one of my TikToks in which I talked about the Festival and contacted me to ask if I wanted to work with them – obviously I said yes!».
