being involved;


Giant Events Company, organiser of Land of Giants, the largest arts
event ever seen in Northern Ireland, is on the look out for more than
500 creative cast and crew. An epic, ambitious event, Land of Giants
is scheduled to take place on Belfast’s Titanic Slipways on June 30,
2012 as part of the Cultural Olympiad.

Combining acrobatics, aerial dance, carnival, circus, physical
performance, music, multi-media and pyrotechnics, the event will
present a spectacular production to an audience of over 20,000 people
at the city’s newest open air events space.

From musical director and costume designer through to health and
safety and stage management, there are numerous backstage
opportunities available. An array of performers will be required
including aerialists, circus and physical performers, drummers,
musicians and singers.

Land of Giants also hopes to offer a series of apprenticeships in
areas such as design, production, lighting, sound, special effects and
community engagement.

Land of Giants will be recruiting a range of paid and unpaid positions
over the next year as well as delivering a number of training
programmes to enhance the skills of people working in the arts and
events sectors in Northern Ireland. The event will be an opportunity
to work with the creative team behind some of Europe's largest outdoor
celebrations.
