The festival in 2027

The Movies that Matter Festival will take place in The Hague from Friday 19 to Saturday 27 March 2027. Together with our team of volunteers, we make sure that visitors and international guests have a memorable festival experience.

Who are we looking for?

We are looking for enthusiastic, proactive people who enjoy rolling up their sleeves and getting things done. An interest in film and festivals, as well as previous volunteering experience, is an advantage. As a volunteer, you are an ambassador for the festival and often the first point of contact for our visitors. We are therefore looking for people who are welcoming, professional and enjoy providing excellent customer service.

Detailed information about the volunteer roles and the conditions for taking part in the 2027 festival will be available when applications reopen.

What do we offer?

As a volunteer, you will be closely involved in the organisation and get a behind-the-scenes look at our special festival. You will also become part of an enthusiastic team and help make the festival possible.

More information about the conditions, expenses and other benefits for volunteers will be available when applications open.

Stay up to date

From late January 2027, you will be able to apply to volunteer at the Movies that Matter Festival via this page. Keep an eye on this page for updates.
