Stewards are the first line of our defense when trouble arises, and often among the first people approached by our visitors in case of questions or need. If you're eager to help out with crowd management, safety checks, escorting special guests and assisting our security and first aid teams, then we are looking for you!
What is expected of you?
- You're at least 18 years of age during AnimeCon 2025, and are able to communicate clearly in both Dutch and English.
- You're able to be present at the festival from about 11am on Friday, May 2, all the way to 7pm on Sunday, May 4.
- You're able to help us out with about 16 hours of shifts during the festival. Any events that you really want to attend as a visitor will of course be taken into account.
What do you get from us?
- A free ticket to the festival; we'll either refund your AnimeCon 2025 ticket, or issue you a free one for one of our future events.
- A paid-for spot to participate in our professional steward training. Stewards are required to participate in this training every other year.
- The ability to book a room in a nearby hotel at a discounted rate, right across the corner from the venue.
- Sandwiches, snacks, drinks, beers and other nibbles during the festival, as well as a place to relax in our Volunteer Lounge and a free volunteering t-shirt.
