Volunteers

For ten years, MCAF’s success has depended on volunteers! All year long, MCAF can count on the hard work of volunteers channeling their love for comic arts in our festival. Here are three great ways to get involved. 

Volunteering During the Festival

The 12th edition of the Montreal Comic Book Festival will be held from May 26 to 28, 2023 on Saint-Denis Street and once again we need your help to make it amazing.
We are looking for passionate and enthusiastic people to contribute to the success of this event and be part of our team of volunteers.

You will also meet talented creators and comic book enthusiasts from around the world, discover incredible works and live a unique and memorable experience.
