More than 15 outdoor events are ready to go.

Now Design POP, Cork’s annual of architecture, design, and food and drink is seeking volunteers to join the festival team across various venues in Cork city from August 27th – 29th, 2021.

“It’s a fantastic opportunity to make new friends and learn new skills.” a spokesperson told Yay Cork.

“The festival requires people power for a number of positions including event stewards, and production assistants. All social distancing regulations will be strictly adhered to and masks must be worn.”

This year’s programme is its biggest yet, with seven architect, designer and food collaborations working on seven different outdoor pavilions which will be situated in different locations around Cork city: Mark Horgan and River Club Bar at The River Lee Hotel; Play Nice studio and Currabinny at Wandesford Quay; Cook Architects and Ballymaloe foods at Elizabeth Fort; Alan Macilwraith of JCA Architects and Good Day Deli at Nano Nagle Place; Maser and Crawford Gallery Café at Emmett Place; Wilson Architects and Naturally Nourished at Penrose Dock; CCAE and Blackrock Castle Observatory at Blackrock Castle.

Full details on the pavilions can be found here.
