The Big Bounce Event Volunteers

We are looking for volunteers to help with an exciting event coming up in August in Union Terrace Gardens – Big Bounce 2025! The event takes place between 7th-10th August 2025, with flexible times available to volunteer. This is a great opportunity to be part of a fantastic event in the heart of Aberdeen City centre.

A team of volunteers are to be recruited to make Big Bounce possible across the four-day event; a superb opportunity to give back to the local community and help make an event to be attended by thousands of families a massive success. We are looking for enthusiastic volunteers to bring fun and energy to the team, ensuring that members of the public have a safe and memorable experience.

There are an abundance of areas to support during the event, including welcoming visitors, selling wristbands, merchandise and rotary raffle tickets, supervising bouncy castles and stalls, and much more. As official event volunteers, you will receive tickets to be used during the weekend to show our appreciation for your incredible support.


Those interested in gifting their time, skills and expertise are invited to get in touch with the Charlie House volunteer team by emailing volunteer@charliehouse.org.uk


With bouncy castles, stalls, music and much more, it's once again guaranteed to be a leading family event in the Aberdeen summer calendar. We can't wait to welcome more fantastic volunteers!
