The UTOPiAcon Volunteer Program mobilizes volunteers and resources to drive UTOPiA, its registrants, team, and the community.

​

Our goal is to enhance the volunteer experience from start to finish, so that we continue to offer the best opportunity to contribute to the fun and success of UTOPiA convention + awards.

​

Our Volunteers are the faces of UTOPiA, working in and around the convention hotel or official venue; often the first ones to greet our registrants.

​

Volunteers who commit to a minimum of 5 hours receive complimentary admission to UTOPiAcon.

 

Volunteers who work at least 10 hours will receive a welcome bag + free t-shirt in addition to admission.
