Volunteer

Help run the festival.

Futureproof Festival, October 28-30 in Vancouver, is made by people who care how the day feels. If you like welcoming strangers, keeping things moving, solving little problems, or helping a good idea land, we would love to hear from you.

Where you might help

Bring your useful weirdness.

Tell us what sounds like you, what does not, and what you can do that is missing from this list. Share when you are available during festival week.

Welcome & wayfinding

You notice who needs a hello, a direction, or a calm answer before they have to ask.

Production support

You like solving practical problems, moving useful things, and helping the day keep its shape.

Tech support

You can help people, rooms, and equipment get along without making the technology the story.

Floor Manager

You keep a shared space clear, kind, and moving when the building gets busy.
