WHY GET INVOLVED?

Gloucester Tall Ships Festival is a celebration of the city, of our community and of our global connections. It has proudly taken place on a grand scale since 2007, when it was founded in the wake of devastating floods in Gloucester. To keep the event going at this scale we need lots of amazing helpers and that's where you come in!

Whether volunteering, trading or sponsoring the event, you're an essential member of the crew. Being part of a huge event like this is very rewarding and seeing the crowds you've helped draw wowed by ships' cannon-fire or our incredible artists and performers, well, there's nothing quite like it!
