Apply to Work The Ladybug Music Festival
The Ladybug Festival is an annual event celebrating women in music. The event was created in 2012 by Gable Music Ventures as a block party for the residents of the 2nd & Loma neighborhood in downtown Wilmington, Delaware.
Every year Gable Music has worked to expand the scope of the event, and the reaction from the community has been incredible with attendance doubling every year since 2012, from approximately 300 to approximately 10,000 in 2017 when the event expanded and added a second day.
This is the fourth year SoundGirls has supported the work of The Ladybug Festival, providing women and girls access to hands-on experience by volunteering to work the festival and paid work for sound engineers and stage managers.
This year’s festival takes place on July 18 and July 19 in downtown Wilmington, DE.
If you would like to be involved, please apply. We will be staffing approximately 24 techs/stage managers for this festival, if you are traveling from out of town we will try and find housing, but no guarantees.
