Volunteers are the heartbeat of our festival

“My favourite part of the summer, hands down, is volunteering at GIFF! I love how Gimli transforms into a lakeside hub of cinema magic where conversations about films can be heard on every corner and in every cafe. As a volunteer, it’s so fun to be apart of that.”

We are looking for volunteers to support our 2024 festival, July 24-28th, in Gimli, Manitoba!

As we enter our 24th year as Manitoba's premiere festival, we are getting ready for one of the biggest festivals yet! Do you want to join the fun? We are looking for volunteers that can support us in Hospitality, Events, Operations, Box Office, Venue Support, Customer Service, General/Floaters!
