Volunteer — Ignite Minneapolis

Volunteers needed

Volunteers have always been the minds and the muscle that make Ignite Minneapolis function. These roles pay dividends in hugs and cookies, and yes, you get to keep the t-shirt. Also, volunteering is a great way to score a couple free tickets to the event.

Open positions

All of these positions will be needed on the day of the event – March 30, 2023.

Ticket Scanners

You work in teams of 2 or 3 and use your smartphone to scan tickets as attendees enter the venue. You’ll also give out wristbands and free drink tickets. To perform this job you may need to download an app to your iOS or Android phone to scan the tickets. You'll get to watch most of the talks. (6-8 people needed.)
Hours: 4:00 p.m. – 8:00 p.m.

Hospitality Personnel

You guide the speakers and attendees where they need to go, answer questions, provide assistance to anyone who needs help, and be a welcoming, friendly presence. You'll get to watch most of the talks, but your primary goal is to be available if an attendee needs help with anything. (4 people needed.)
Hours: 4:00 p.m. – 10:00 p.m.

Keynote Operator

You sit in the control booth with the lead engineer and you’ll run the laptop that controls the slide decks. It sounds simple, but it requires vigilance and attention to detail throughout all the live performances. This is a mission-critical role. You'll get to watch all of the talks from the booth. You should have a solid understanding of Macintosh computers and the Apple Keynote application. (1 person needed.)
Hours: 5:00 p.m. – 9:30 p.m.
