Barnaby Festival is all about celebrating the creativity of Macclesfield. Through Barnaby Platform we want to highlight the incredible events and activities taking place around Macclesfield surrounding and during the festival weekend 17-18 June.2023
Barnaby has almost 10,000 social media followers, and a busy website and during the festival weekend, footfall in the town centre increases substantially. We want to make use of our networks and channels to support artists, organisations and businesses in Macclesfield.
We’re creating a # feed via our social media platforms: simply tag in #BarnabyPlatform to feature on the feed. We will share your activity and events on our social media pages and feature your event on our website.
We are looking for volunteers to support with the festival build up and across the festival weekend. Whether you have a couple of hours to spare or a full day, we’d love to hear from you!
We’re looking for volunteer support with:
Creative workshops
Barnaby Parade (set up and various roles on the day)
Barnaby Arts Trail (set up & on the day)
Barnaby Listening Tent
