Working at a festival over the summer isn't going to boost you bank balance as it's likely you'll only be paid with an entry ticket. However, if you work hard and use your time wisely you can network and build your contacts, which is especially important if you want a career in areas such as event management or to become a live sound engineer, for example.

You'll be expected to do a couple of days work and then the rest of the festival is yours to enjoy. Roles include working behind the bar, checking tickets, stewarding or selling merchandise.

For some roles you'll apply directly to the festival by uploading a CV and details of your availability. For others you'll need to go through the agencies that staff these events.

Summer camps
Spending your summer at a camp working with children is a great way to gain experience if you want to be a teacher or educational mentor. You could work at a general camp or specialise at a camp for children with additional needs or at sports camps. Once you've chosen where you want to work you need to decide what you want to do - roles include mentor, craft assistant, cook or office administrator. Camps run from June to September; you’ll get a salary and in some cases food and accommodation.

Some, such as Camp America and Bunac, allow you to travel for up to 30 days after camp ends allowing you to build your independence, confidence and organisation skills as you book routes, travel and accommodation.

Alternatively you could stay in the UK and get a job at a playscheme over the summer. Also run during other school holidays, they are activity-based programmes for school-aged children. They generally don't last the whole summer and may even be split, which may be helpful if you have less time to dedicate. Local authorities will have a list of what's available and you will need an up-to-date CV to apply. Some settings will ask for an application form followed by an interview.

Wherever you choose to work you'll need to have declared any previous convictions and undergone the criminal records check through the Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS).
