A Festival Career is an event series run in partnership with our University members, aimed at the next generation of festival professionals, who are currently studying event management.
Our next session takes place in October 2024.
Wednesday 9 October, 1pm – 4pm: Manchester Metropolitan University Business School
Join a range of festival professionals who discuss their routes into a career in festivals and the best – and worst – things about working in the festivals sector. As well as a panel featuring speakers from festivals including Harrogate International Festivals, Gobefest, Newbury Spring Festival and Chiltern Arts, there will be opportunities to ‘meet the mentors’ in small groups, so that you can make connections and start to build the professional network that will kickstart your career in events.
Tickets are free for students attending BAFA member universities, and £15 for non-members, but places are limited so sign up today!
