  • Overview
Anime Messe Babelsberg at Filmpark Potsdam is a place where Japanese pop culture comes alive through the passion of fans for fans. While professional partners handle logistics, security, and technology in the background, the Anime Kultur e.V. provides the heart and soul of the event. Our mission is to make this unique culture accessible to as many people as possible and to create an extraordinary Animeland.

Would you like to become part of our volunteer family? We offer you the opportunity to explore various roles and actively contribute to the cultural exchange. As a token of appreciation for your voluntary and unpaid commitment, you will receive a crew shirt and catering each day, as well as a lucky bag at the end.

Volunteer duties

Please tell us in which area you would like to get involved. You can also select more than one area. If you don't want to commit yourself, simply select "Allrounder". We will try to meet your wishes.

You belong to a special group, e.g. club or have been recruited by us in some other way. Please let us know here so that we don't schedule you incorrectly in the evaluation.

When do you have time to support us?

We are generally looking for volunteers who have around 8 hours available on Friday, Saturday and Sunday each. To make organisation easier while still allowing enough free time, we have divided the work on each convention day into two time slots. If you don't mind which time slot, please select both. We will then coordinate according to demand.

Time Slot 1: approx. 08–12 and 16–20
Time Slot 2: approx. 12–16 and 20–24

If you want to support us beyond the time slots, for example to compensate for absence, write us a note.

The set-up and dismantling days are Wednesday 09 - 22 hrs, Thursday 09 - 22 hrs, Friday 07 - 14 hrs, Sunday 19:30 - 0 hrs and Monday 08 - 16 hrs.
