For Super 2024

Volunteers are required to purchase admission to the event, but are eligible for various rewards, including swag, food, badge refunds, and even complimentary admission to future events. The more hours you put in, the more rewards you get! Some hours are weighted more than others (such as highly-skilled jobs or late-night shifts), so you can choose a schedule that works best for you.

We have three types of volunteers:

• Pre-Registered Volunteers

• Staffers

• At-Event Volunteers (Or Walk-On)

What is Staff Status? What is Staff Crash Space?

MAGFest Staff are volunteers who have been certified as trusted volunteers who are capable of handling more responsibility. Volunteering 24 hours or more grants staff status to the following event. Staffers receive a customized badge, as well as a staff shirt to distinguish themselves to attendees as returning volunteers. They also earn the ability to request Staff Crash space in exchange for volunteering 30 hours. They cap out at 30 instead of 24 hours for earning perks.
