Get Involved

We need your help! A major focus of this event and something that our crew has in its sights every step of the way is COMMUNITY.

This festival is made up of the contributions from hundreds of individuals who have made it all possible and we are deeply thankful for every single person who has put in the mahi to steer this crazy ship. Together we have honed this event for ten years now and each year with the support of our wider Twisted whānau, it grows, matures, blossoms and develops into something new. What a wild ride it has been, we can't wait to see where this journey takes us next. Without you all getting involved and doing your bit to keep the ship sailing on course it would not be possible so THANKYOU. Regardless of your passion or skill set there will be somewhere in the festival where you can get amongst and share it with us all. Check out the options below and join the team!

We are a friendly bunch and love to welcome new crew members into the fold, just fill out your details below and let us know a little about yourself. We are always looking for keen people with building/rigging/festival production skills to come and join us onsite for 2-6 weeks over the whole setup, party, packdown process or for essential folks to take on core roles during the event itself. We are also keen to hear from anyone that has skills that might be useful during the event - This could be stage management, parking, driving, cooking, coffee making or general hospo steeze. Make sure you let us know if you have previous experience crewing with festivals and if so which ones. Payment: This is always handled on a case-by-case basis, You can work for your entry or we can arrange a wage depending on what you are bringing to the table.

We welcome any and all arts/crafts/fashion or products as long as they can adhere to our one rule: NO CHEAP PLASTIC CRAP! We prefer to host stalls that are selling sustainable products where possible. There is no charge for bringing a stall, we want to make it as easy and profitable as possible for small business/artisans and creatives to share their wares. All we ask is that each stall holder and their staff/team members purchases a ticket to the festival. Let us know a little about your stall and what you'd like to do.

Art is a huge part of what this festival is about and has always been a core aspect of what sets us apart from other events, every year we invite creatives from a wide range of disciplines to bring new colours and shapes to the Cobb Valley. We are currently looking for painters, sculptures, and other creative peeps who would be keen to exhibit their art this Twisted in our gallery space and throughout the site. There will be plenty of spots available within the gallery tent, and we ask that each artist takes on a couple of shifts as curator, managing the space and this way you can be present to talk to someone if they are interested in purchasing some art! Been looking for the motivation to complete that piece you've had to the side for a while now? Pumped to collaborate and network with other artists in the community? Send through some links to examples of your work along with a bit about yourself. We are also always on the hunt for live painters/Graffiti/Mural artists to paint live and in person during the event, if you're interested in submitting for a spot in the gallery space or a spot on our live art team. Send us some examples of your work and some info about you as an artist. Installation artists apply below! If you have an existing installation OR have an exciting idea for something you would like to do and just need someone to back it and a place for it to be appreciated, Let us know, we want to hear from you!

Let us know a little about your stall and what you'd like to do. Please note, we do have some conditions for food vendors: ALL single use cutlery, plates and cups need to be COMPOSTABLE (not just biodegradable). If you want help transitioning to using compostable items then we can help you find the way. We try to avoid over stocking on the same types of food, so we need to know exactly what you're wanting to sell - this is to make sure that all vendors that come have a fair chance at making it worth their while. We will be strictly enforcing this, so make sure you talk to us and understand before organising your stall. Kai is the fuel that keeps people safely partying through the night and we encourage stalls to be open late where possible. What does it cost? Prior to accepting your application we will negotiate an exchange of credit at your stall which will be redeemed via vouchers for the crew and artists during the event. If this credit isn't redeemed we will ask that you pay the remaining difference. This depends on what you are selling, so it is a case-by-case basis. If you prefer to negotiate a site fee to keep things simple for you, we may consider this, however we need to have help with meal vouchers for crew and artists and have found that vendors find this approach suitable.

Festival Entry Costs + Helpers

Stall owners and any helpers need to purchase tickets (we've found it the simplest way to handle this). What is provided? We provide water and electricity, Please note, Some stalls that require larger amounts of power will need to chip in for generator fuel depending on their usage.
