Community Festival

June 26-28, 2026

Volunteer Central & Information

Looking for information about various ComFest volunteer roles or ready to sign up now? Click here!

 

The Volunteer Central committee is responsible for organizing volunteers for the festival, as well as general volunteer recruitment and retention.

During the festival, VC is found at the Information Station, the hub of the Community Festival. Our volunteers provide everything from how to find your favorite stage, when your band is playing, how to find your favorite street fair vendor, or where the best food is. Additionally, The Information Station has plenty of program guides and is home to the Lost & Found.

The VC committee services as a central communication point for all other committees within the ComFest organization. We gather recruitment and placement suggestions, we help assure that pre-festival administrative work is completed. We even help the other committees meet their administrative requirements when staffing runs short.

If you enjoy helping people, are outgoing, or want to share your vast ComFest knowledge, Volunteer Central & Information has a place for you!

Happy ComFest!

Welcome to Community Festival 2026! For 54 years, ComFest has been the progressive heartbeat of Columbus and central Ohio.

ComFest is a free event, powered by Community and sustained without corporate sponsors. Featuring the very best local music, progressive political activism and community organizing, local artisans and craftspeople and your favorite summer foods, ComFest brings the community together.

ComFest has nurtured the Columbus arts and entertainment scene, nourished small businesses, energized generations of community activists, and positioned progressive ideals front and center in our growing city.

The costs to put on this extraordinary event increase every year. Whether its permits, safety and security, trash and recycling supplies, stages and sound equipment, libations or any number of expenses, the costs of putting on this free and all volunteer weekend continue to outrun the revenues.

We’d like to take a moment to ask you to consider supporting ComFest financially. Now more than ever, this unique and vital event must be here for the next generation of ComFesters and your support can ensure the legacy begun 54 years ago lives on.

Thank you for being here: For volunteering, for supporting local music, for purchasing ComFest beverages, for shopping at Street Fair, and for signing up to protect the principles and values we all stand and fight for.

Have a great ComFest.
