UKEN is hiring 4

UKEN is western Norway’s second largest culture festi-val and is held every other year. Over a thousand stu-dents volunteer as fUKENtionaries to create 17 days of concerts, events and lots of fun! The UKEline-up will be packed with everything from wild concerts and shows, to world record attempts, the kid’s day, elderly’s day and much more.

Central to UKEN is the UKErevue. Every UKEN we set the stage for our own show, which has won the natio-nal prize several times. UKEN has a tradition for revues that has roots stretching back to 1947, with many famous artists starting their career here, such as Jo Nesbø and Raske Menn.

In addition to the revue there are many unforgettable memories created here, with concerts in the UKEtent 2 in the Aula. Great artists have visited UKEN over and

the years, such as Backstreet Boys, Kygo, Axwell & Ingrosso, 50 Cent, Veronica Maggio, The White Stripes and DJ Tiesto. The magical atmosphere created in the UKEtent and the Aula when some of the world’s biggest artists enter the stage is absolutely priceless for both the guests and the fUKENtionaries.

Even though it is a lot of focus on the revue and the big concerts, what makes UKEN truly great is the broad spectre of the program and the different tasks you can have as a volunteer. We have something to everyone’s liking and three weeks of fantastic experiences makes UKEN a cultural experience you do not want to miss!

DEAR FELLOW STUDENTS! Dear fellow students!

This is the final opportunity to join the UKE-family – don’t let this opportunity slip away!

There are only a few weeks left until UKEN kicks off, and soon you will notice that NHH and Bergen turns from grey and rainy, to green and filled with joy! We are now working hard to finish the UKEline-up, which is already starting to shape into a promising festival with MØ, Aurora, The Game and much more.

Now we need even more fUKENtionaries to lay the last finish on what is going to be the largest cultural festival on the west coast in 2018.

UKEN is the largest project in the student union and towards UKEN 18 we will be well above 1000 fUKENtionaries working together to create the best UKEN so far. For us to succeed with this we need talented and motivated students and there are more aspects to creating a festival than you might think of! And it is this abundance of opportunities and different tasks that makes UKEN so great.

As fUKENtionary you will experience loads of fun and make new acquaintances along the way. You will have the opportunity to join the UKEcruise, the ski day, the line-up release party, fUKENtionary premiere and much more. There is actually no reason to wait – I think you should keep reading and find the position that suits you the best. It is not a question whether UKEN is right for you, but merely what you want to do in UKEN! I am looking forward to talking to you at the stand!

Best regards

The UKEorcherstra is a central part of the UKE revue. If you are passionate about singing or playing an instrument, then you should apply to join the UKE orchestra and together we will be responsible for lifting the UKE revue to new musical heights. Through legendary parties and not to mention the UKE revue itself, you will, together with your soon-to-be new best friends, embark on a musical and social adventure with alternately six sharps and three♭’s.

Most concerts, revues and shows have one thing in common; they would have been boring without their lighting show! UKEN is going to create an all-time revue in 2018, and we need you to come join us in making this possible. Does this sound interesting? Then Revue Light is the group for you! As a lighting technician, you will participate in planning, rigging, programming and executing the lights during the show. This is the part made for people who seek to create the perfect atmosphere on stage; there’s a lot to learn here!

This is a position where a lot of fun can be expected, and no prerequisites are necessary!

Nothing beats the feeling of when the stage curtain is pulled aside in front of a crowded aula. To give the revue the musical quality it deserves, I want you to apply for the orchestra. You are especially encouraged to apply if you play piano, bowed string, woodwind and brass instruments. Don’t sit on the fence - apply for a position in the UKE orchestra. Period.
