FESTIVAL VOLUNTEERS
If you've ever been to a SDAFF event, you know volunteers are the critical support we rely on, and they ensure the success of events throughout the year. There are several positions available, each tailored to various types of personalities.

Being a SDAFF volunteer is a rewarding experience with many perks, including free access to some of our events, but best of all, you get to hang out with us! You'll be helping make San Diego a more culturally aware city by working with other dedicated volunteers.
