FAST 2025 would not have been the same without the architecture students who joined the festival as volunteers. The organizing team would like to thank them for their time, their involvement, and for choosing to be part of the crew that helped the event run from day to day.
They supported registrations, guided participants, assisted during talks and panels, moved between venues, and handled the many small practical tasks that come with a multi-day program. Some moments were busy, some were improvised, and they managed both, while still having space to enjoy the experience, meet people, and be part of the festival atmosphere, which is very much in the spirit of FAST.
Volunteering at FAST is not only about logistics. It also means being inside the process, seeing how an architecture festival is built, meeting guests and speakers, and becoming part of a community. Their presence helped keep a friendly rhythm across the festival, for participants, invited guests, and the organizing team.
The team is grateful for the energy they brought to Iași and for the shared effort behind the scenes. Thank them for the work, the conversations, the laughs, and the collective push that made this edition feel alive. The organizers hope to welcome them again in future editions of FAST.
