Why Volunteer?
Want a fun way to get involved with the festival? Maybe you'd like to increase your volunteer hours so that you can finish up a school credit? Or maybe you've heard (correctly) that if you work two full shifts for the OIAF, you get access to the screenings and talks at this year's Festival? Perhaps you just know that you're going to be bored in September? Well, look no further than the OIAF to solve all your problems. Just don't wait too long to sign up, or else... you'll miss out.
This festival is one of a kind attracting movie buffs, art lovers, filmmakers, and cartoon fans from around the world, bringing them together in one place, for one special event, once a year. An event of this scale would not be possible without the enthusiasm, commitment and hard work of the volunteers who faithfully support the festival every year.

We are happy to have you volunteer at the event. Please note that we will not be able to provide accommodation (though you can see a list of recommendations on our website) and we would like to remind you that the volunteer pass does not give you access to the entire festival.
The best way to be scheduled for the same shifts as your friends is to coordinate with each other when signing up and then to send a note including your names to our volunteer coordinator at
This e-mail address is being protected from spam bots, you need JavaScript enabled to view it
We cannot guarantee that you will be scheduled with your friends, but we’ll do our best.
We hold an orientation session a week or two before the festival starts. You are not required to attend, but we encourage you to come in order to learn more, to ask any questions you might have and to meet some of your fellow volunteers.
All our screening venues are accessible for wheelchairs; unfortunately, some of our party locations are not. Please get in touch with the volunteer coordinator if you require more details.
Most of our volunteer positions require no previous experience, just enthusiasm!
For the parties and for Chez Anicafe, we require you to be 19+ years old and we will give preference to volunteers with the Smartserve certificate for the Chez AniCafe.
For reception, we are looking for some bilingual volunteers to welcome all our attendees (not just French, but any language you offer).
With the volunteer access pass you can attend screenings, talks (including Animation Career Fair) and special presentations, space permitting. We do ask that you wait until showtime and until all passholders and ticket buyers are inside before taking a seat. We recommend avoiding the busy Gala competition screenings.
Volunteers over 19 can attend our late night parties but must wait until all passholders are inside the venue. This can sometimes be as late as 1am.
The only events volunteers do not have access to are the Animator's Picnic and TAC (unless you are working these events.)
Volunteer passes can be picked up starting Monday, September 15th, at the office, during business hours (9:30am-9pm). We are located in the Arts Court building at 2 Daly Street on the first floor (take elevator B). Please make sure that you have your pass when you attend your first shift so that you are identifiable. Your volunteer pass is strictly personal and cannot be used by anyone else.
You will be assigned two shifts. The average volunteer shift is approximately four hours long. If you are willing to take on more than two shifts, please email our volunteer coordinator, and you will be showered with thanks!
Yes and No. You will be able to meet people while on duty, however you cannot participate or talk shop with them during your shift. You are allowed to come to recruitment events, and to parties if there is space (entrance after the party starts, so it could be late).
The festival takes place from September 17-21. Screenings take place at the ByTowne Cinema, Arts Court, National Gallery, Ottawa Little Theatre and SilverCity Cinema. The party locations are also in the downtown area.
We recommend you arrive around 15-20 minutes before your shift starts, giving you time to get settled and receive any further directions from the location manager.
Everyday casual attire is acceptable for most festival events. We encourage volunteers to wear clothing that is comfortable and presentable, and ask that you do not wear any t-shirts, logos, or paraphernalia with offensive language or imagery on them. Khakis, skirts, and blue jeans are acceptable for events, so feel free to dress in the manner you feel appropriate.
Volunteers working at TAC events are to dress in business casual. If you are volunteering at one or more TAC events and have concerns about this, please let us know in advance so we can work something out.
We do not pay for cab fare or arrange transportation for volunteers. We do want you to get home safely and ask therefore that you make sure you have arranged safe and reliable transportation, before coming to the shift.
Let our volunteer coordinator know as soon as possible if you need to change or cancel a shift, so we can make alternate arrangements, at 613-232-8769.
