Volunteers make the event a success and are an important part of the BSides experience worldwide.

Please fill out the form below if you are interested in volunteering. The organizing committee will randomly pick as many names as we can reasonably accommodate to determine who receives an invite. If you want to guarantee your spot at the event then please feel free to register for a ticket; any names picked from the hat will have their ticket refunded.

Please note: If you are interested in participating in the Capture the Flag event, then volunteering is not for you; volunteers are not allocated a seat in the main CTF room and will have minimal time to concentrate on capturing flags, or otherwise geeking out in a single-threaded manner.
