Clean Vibes
The above links are two awesome organizations that allow you work to help keep various music festivals clean and promote recycling while in attendance! You can volunteer in exchange for a free ticket-- but most of the time you must submit a deposit of around $200 (or about the festival's equivalent entry) that will be reimbursed upon completion of your shifts.
"Recyclmania" is just one option through WET; there are opportunities to work merchandise, ticketing, vending, and even artist relations!
I'm working during Wakarusa in Ozark, AR with WET; as a "trash talker" spreading awareness of the recycling and composting available at Phish Superball IX at Watkins Glen, NY; and as a post clean-up volunteer at AllGood in WV with Clean Vibes... this one is a great opportunity because I don't have to miss any of the music since I'll complete all my hours after the festival. We get to remain camping onsite for free and are provided some meals, too... not to mention all the amazing people we'll meet while helping to keep fests green. =) Check it out!
