Volunteer With Us

Plan it. Work it. Enjoy it!

Our Lake Placid Film Festival Organizing Committee works year-round to produce a world-class Film Festival in the late Fall of each year. We welcome volunteers for the pre-event planning and/or for working during the four-day Festival.  There are roles in special event planning, VIP hospitality, transportation, ticket sales, sponsorship sales, marketing, etc. just to name a few.  No film festival experience is required – we’ll work with you to find a role that meets your interests and availability. 

We offer fantastic benefits including the opportunity to attend many of the films & events when you aren’t covering a shift. We have started planning, let us know if you are interested in helping out now. Otherwise, we hope you’ll join the other 60 volunteers that make the LP Film Festival one of the best in the nation.

We’d love to talk with you about volunteering opportunities – give us a call at (518) 302-1375 or send an email with your contact information.

  • Primarily, I did it in order to help an event that I think is very important to our community. But I also enjoyed access to all films and the chance to meet with those in the business.

  • I love movies and the opportunity to be part of a festival with people in the business and to get to talk endlessly about movies (w/o boring anyone) was fabulous.

  • Organizing team was welcoming and the volunteers I worked with were also welcoming in our mission to provide info and give a positive experience. Interesting to see the behind workings of the organization and their ability to be flexible, timely, and remain calm in solving any issues!
