Applications are now open for volunteers for the Dubai International Film Festival (Diff), taking place this year from December 10-17 at Madinat Jumeirah.

The festival, now in its 11th edition, has, every year, worked with the help of volunteers and this edition is no different. UAE nationals and UAE residents over the age of 15 can apply for volunteer roles from red carpet management to staffing the box office; admin, ushering, marketing and media. Their only other stipulation: Applicants should be dedicated, hard-working and should be willing to make up part of a great team.

Volunteers get access to Diff screenings, food vouchers, a letter of recommendation.

Recruitment sessions are 5-7pm, November 13 (UAE national volunteers) and 5.30-8.30pm, November 14 (general), at Knowledge Village Conference Centre. For more details, click here.
