We need over 200 volunteers to make the Boston Monster March happen. Please email us and say:

  • Which time slot works best for you
  • Your cell phone #
  • And whether you can help before the show with flyers, posters, or email

    • Thanks!! This is your festival because you help make it happen and support a great cause! And by the way, we have $19,000 in costume contest prizes and giveaways for volunteers, and we're planning a special afterparty just for volunteers, too! Please invite your friends to help out.
