Volunteers are the skeleton on which the convention is built. We are responsible for set up, tear down, and every task in between both great and small! While it is a lot of work it is also extremely rewarding. Volunteers will work closely with others in their department as well as coordinators to tackle tasks, take care of guests, assist our team of celebrities and talent, and even set up tech and demos for onsite attractions. Perks for Volunteering are hour based and subject to availability. All Volunteers receive 1 Badge that grants access to the show for all days. Lunch and drinks will be provided. Our minimum shift requirement for approval is 8 hours. If you intend to work Guest Relations you will need all day availability.
