South By Southwest (SXSW) Seeking Volunteers- REMINDER-Volunteer Call tonight at the Austin Convention Center

South By Southwest (SXSW) Seeking Volunteers

Sometimes it seems like the whole world comes to downtown Austin every March. Why are all of these celebrities, techies and musicians invading the city? Check it out firsthand by volunteering at South by Southwest (SXSW) Music, Film and Interactive Conferences and Festivals! See what happens behind the scenes, earn a chance to see fascinating panels, catch an up-and- coming band, check out comedy acts, question an emerging filmmaker or rub elbows with your favorite internet idol. It's a great opportunity to network, socialize and most of all have fun!

SXSW Week, March 9 - 18, 2012, is offering a multitude of volunteer opportunities. Jobs range from festival production to conference activities including registration, information, trade show, technical support, and much more. Day and night positions are available during the conference. Volunteers must be able to work a minimum of 30 hours or 3 shifts during the event, depending on their crew type.

Applications are available online and crew shift selections will take place at the Volunteer Call on Tuesday, January 24, 2012 between 6:00 and 9:00 p.m. at the Austin Convention Center, Ballroom ABC on the First Floor. If you are unable to attend the Volunteer Call or need any information about volunteering, please contact a SXSW Volunteer Coordinator at volunteer@sxsw.com or 512/467-7979 as soon as possible.
