Games Maker roles and venues

Games Makers will take on hundreds of different volunteering roles in a number of venues. We've outlined all the different teams that need Games Makers and given examples of the roles on offer.

We've also put together an interactive venues map, so you can see which venues volunteers will be based at, and what will be happening there at Games time.

Did you know?

Games Makers will get three lots of training before the Games – orientation, role-specific and venue training.

There are over 30 LOCOG teams recruiting Games Makers, from Ticketing to Sustainability.

You could volunteer in one of over 30 venues around the UK – only a handful of Games-time venues are in London.

We are looking for up to 70,000 volunteers – that’s the biggest peacetime recruitment campaign in the history of the UK!

We value and embrace diversity – be it age, disability, gender, ethnicity, religion and belief or sexual orientation.

Some Games Makers will get to go to a Test Event before the Games, when we check everything is working and ready for Games time.
