Manifest is run by the not-for-profit group Melbourne Anime Festival Incorporated which is put together and ran entirely by volunteers.

Manifest started as a screenings festival back in 1998 ran by several university clubs at Melbourne University. It has been known as Manifest since the year 2000 and since then has been steady growing, adding more activities to do over the years.
