The Society
The Beltane Fire Society was created in the late 1980’s as a community arts project, celebrating the seasonal quarter-day festivals through street performance theatre. BFS continues this role to the present day, and encourages members of both Edinburgh’s Community and the wider world to join us in continuing to celebrate these traditional events.
Volunteering
We are always looking for new members to join our society, and become part of the dynamic and vibrant Beltane community. We have a range of roles depending on your interest. Whatever skills you have, whatever skills you want to develop and whatever time you can give, we can usually find a home for you within the Beltane community. For each festival, we need (as a base) – performers, organisers, tech crew, stewards, torch bearers, musicians and drummers. Most of the time, we’re happy to teach people the skills they need to be involved in any group.
For more information on getting involved in our upcoming festivals and events, please email volunteers@beltane.org (volunteers null@null beltane NULL.org) to find out what roles and events need you! We only insist you’re over 18 and have bucket loads of enthusiasm.
