ImageWe’re an ever-evolving crew of people, who believe in Planet Angel’s Values & Objectives and love to be creative!

We work hard to create the Planet Angel environment… the greeting offered at the door, the smell, vibe & feel of the rooms, the offering of fresh fruit midway through the party… and much more. A lot of crew put their heart & soul into Planet Angel…. it’s a huge part of what makes this thing what it is.  You can find details of individual Crew members on the Contributor Pages.

We positively welcome new people getting involved, the more excellent crew we have on board the better as far as we’re concerned!

The Party Crew

The Party crew is divided into 4 teams on the night… there are volunteer roles on every team so people can try out roles in a relaxed, casual way and see how they like it!  You can volunteer on any team if you have the necessary skills/ experience… bear in mind there are waiting lists on some teams… The five teams are;

Front of House Team: This team is the first point of contact for everyone! They run the door lists, door area & the party shop… people on this team are outgoing, love interacting with lots of different personalities and excited party people, can stay calm if it gets hectic and have an inbuilt bubbly, enthusiastic, helpful, genuine and trustworthy nature!
 
ImageProduction Team: This team creates the Planet Angel look within the venue, rigging and de-rigging décor & production systems throughout the venue.  People on this team do not do any crewing while the party is running, instead they need to be available during the working day to setup, and be able to derig again at the end of the night for a couple of hours with the rest of the team…. These people are OK with heights, interested in creative production and have good attention to detail.

Audio Visual Team: This team deals with all things technical!  Lighting, Sound systems, Visuals and the live broadcast over the net… people on this team need to have experience working within technical role (within theatre or events perhaps), the ability to solve technical problems, creative flair for operating the lighting systems, and stamina for rigging & de-rigging.

Hosting Team: This team looks out for the welfare of everyone… they serve the fruit, sort out the incense, keep the place tidy, keep a check on volume & temperature, look after all the artists & DJs and all the activities, art & games.  People on this team have excellent communication skills, they genuinely care about the welfare of others, they don’t mind getting their hands dirty, they are relaxed and able to calmly deal with hectic-ness, love meeting people and are generally fun, up for it, and playful!
