Could you be one of our superstar’s volunteering with us? Dauntsey Festival of Transport & Country Show is a great community event, attracting thousands of local residents as well as visitors from the wider region. However, the show would not be possible without the willing help of its many volunteers behind the scenes ensuring everything runs smoothly.

Volunteering Roles

From the Chair Person’s role, the Committee members, the various show department coordinators through to those who staff marquees, gates and car parks, our show is a wonderful example of a volunteer force working together to produce a fun filled family event for all! It is also quickly becoming a jewel in the crown locally covering a total of nearly 70 acres showground, entertainment and camping facilities.
