Volunteer sign-ups for 2026 will open in April.
Participate in ComFest year-round by attending a General Planning Committee meeting or joining a committee.
Behold, the power behind ComFest – YOU!
ComFest is an entirely volunteer run festival, which means we literally couldn’t pull this off without each and every volunteer. Energetic, friendly volunteers are needed all over for a variety of jobs. We have roughly 3,000 volunteer shifts to fill each year, so there’s plenty of room for you to join the ComFest family!
What do you get when you volunteer?
You get that year's ComFest t-shirt - in fact, it's the only way to get it. You also get volunteer chips.
Each volunteer chip can be used for any of the following:
- Any ComFest Libation (from the faster Volunteers line!)
- $5 towards ComFest Merch
- $4 towards food vendors
- Entry to the Silent Disco
Want to volunteer, but not sure where? Read about just a few of the many different volunteer roles we have available at the festival to see where would be the best fit.
