We are so happy that you want to join us and help us create the Riddu Riđđu festival, and we look forward to having you on our team in Olmmáivággi! There are three different ways you can get involved in Riddu Riđđu: 1) Veahkki (volunteer), 2) Bargi (staff) and 3) Bargi nuorat (youth staff). Read more about the differences further down the page.

Veahkki: For those who want to help create the world's most important festival, who want clearly defined tasks and work up to 16 hours.
Bargi: For those who want to influence Riddu Riđđu all year round, who want to lead others or solve tasks independently and want to work at least 25 hours.
Bargi nuorat: For young people between the ages of 13 and 17 who want to learn about how a festival is run and gain event organizing skills by working in different areas before and during the festival.
