  • Providing administrative or programme support, such as facilitating arts activities or workshops
  • Providing feedback as trial audience
  • Being an online festival advocate

Every year, we host thousands of guests from over 160 Social Service Agencies (SSAs) to performances here at Esplanade. We also conduct about 150 arts-based workshops at these SSAs throughout the year. Volunteer roles include:


  • Guiding and assisting our hosted guests of all ages, including persons with disabilities and diverse needs
