Coalville CAN is offering local residents the chance of a role at some of this summer's top Midlands festivals.

In return, volunteers will be given access to the events - in exchange for taking on one of the many tasks that need to be filled.

The Coalville community group is working with James Dean Events and his crew, with a view to cresting 'an unforgettable summer experience'.

Deana Bamford, of Coalville CAN, said: "Calling all families, adults and retirees in Coalville. 

"This is a great opportunity to experience a festival weekend for free. 

"If you've never been before, or you're a bit strapped, for cash this is ideal.

"I always like to have a bit of a role at a festival, it makes it more fun I think.

"So this is the best of both worlds. And it's free."

Deana explained how it will be working.

She added: "CAN are looking for adults and older younger people - 16-plus if part of a family group - to come along to some cool events this summer.

"From the NEC in May, to festivals including Sausage and Cider, Beacon Tribute and Back2 at the end of June, July and August.

"'What's in it for you?', we hear you ask.

"Free tickets for you, including camping. Plus extra tickets for family, and friends.

"Free food and water and dedicated camping area at the camping events.

"Transport arrangements are available from Coalville too.

"All we ask for in return is your commitment to a couple of shifts.

"Litter picking, accreditation and information roles are available. 

"Ready to join the fun? Get your family and friends to sign up. 

"Check out the details and secure your spot now. Join us and make this summer one to remember."
